Lot 440
1828 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Curl base, knob 2. EF-40. Bright bluish green and gold toning enhances the eye appeal of this coin, which is problem-free except that it was probably cleaned many years ago. Look, the truth is, whether or not a cataloguer mentions it, most circulated Bust halves have been cleaned; the famous Economite Hoard in Pennsylvania alone contained over half a million Bust half dollars, and the Economy clan cleaned all of them. So, our comment is not to be taken as a pejorative, merely as a statement of fact.
