- 1807 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-112. Rarity-1. Large Stars, 50/20. AU-55 (PCGS).
Pretty cobalt blue and reddish-gold iridescence lines the upper obverse border, the balance of the surfaces more lightly patinated in pinkish-apricot. Boldly to sharply defined from a well executed strike, the borders are universally denticulated, if a bit thin in places. Plenty of lively satin luster remains to further tempt the discerning bidder. Always in demand among early half dollar variety collectors, the 1807 50/20 is not only an obvious die preparation blunder that is evident to the naked eye, but it also enjoys its own listing in the popular Guide Bookreference on United States coins. Two die marriages are known for this variety, employing the same reverse but different obverses. Overton-112 is by far the more common in terms of total number of coins extant, although at the upper reaches of About Uncirculated preservation it is, like all early Capped Bust half dollars, scarce and eagerly sought.
PCGS# 6086. NGC ID: 24EN.
