Lot 1433
1811 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Small 8. NGC graded Overton-110. MS-65. Well struck with nice original toning on both sides. NGC holder 32282006. A impressive gem by any criterion used to grade an early half dollar. The luster is not in the least shy or acquiescent, while natural champagne, gray, and other toning hues, some iridescent, blossom on both sides. The strike, like the vibrant luster, is confident, indeed, as bold as ever seen at the cap, the curls, drapery and clasp, the eagle's feathers and on the shield. If any negative comment was to be spoken about the devices, it would deal solely with a few stars on the left, which are a bit compacted. Those on the right show full radials and sharp points. Pop 1; the finest graded for the variety at NGC. (PCGS # 6097) .
Estimated Value $9,000 - 11,000.
