Intriguing Overdate Variety
1824 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-103. Rarity-1. 4/Various Dates. MS-64 (PCGS).
Premium quality for the die pairing, this example is well struck overall and sharper than usual on the stars along the right obverse border. Those at the left border are characteristically soft, however, but to no great detriment. Warm central toning gives way to bolder cobalt blue patina at the peripheries. This popular variety is alternately described as 4/Various Dates, 1824/2/0 and, your cataloger's (JLA's) personal favorite, "1824 over a jumble of recuttings" (per Overton/Parsley). It is not a rare die pairing in an absolute sense, but few examples in numismatic hands are Mint State. This lovely near-Gem, with an impressive provenance, is tied for CC#3 for the 1824 O-103 attribution in the Spring 2022 revision to Stephen J. Herrman's Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839.
Provenance: Ex Charles Link Collection; Heritage's Long Beach Signature Auction of June 2017, lot 3657.
PCGS# 39646. NGC ID: 24FK.
