Lot 1074
1838 Capped Bust Half Dollar. NGC graded MS-64. Lustrous frosty silvery gray surfaces with rich colorful highlights. Full cap and hair curls and other head details on Liberty (notice the sharp detail on the clasp at her shoulder). Similarly on the reverse, where this coin received a complete blow by the die. A truly choice borderline-gem specimen of a short-lived Type from our formative years as a growing nation. Pop 68; 23 finer, 17 in 65, 5 in 66, 1 in 67.
Estimated Value $3,800 - 4,200.
