LM-3. Totally original and high end for the variety! Rarely are such wonderful examples offered for the collector. Offering very handsome gunmetal gray toning with lustrous fields on both sides this early half dime is a great coin for a type or variety set. Iridescent hues can be seen when rotated in a light. Boldly struck and carefully preserved with none of the usually seen faults that plague these early half dimes. The surfaces are free of adjustments and any handling issues. The strike is reasonably sharp and even, this is extraordinary as the entire shield is sharp over the eagle, as are the wings--with just a touch of softness found on the upper right, the area opposite Miss Liberty’s breast, which is always found soft. Basically there simply wasn’t enough silver planchet metal available to strike up both of these features completely, given the depth of the designs and the thinness of the planchet. This is a great coin for any collector to pursue. PCGS 2, NGC 1, CAC 1. This GEM AU sold in our December 2017 Regency Auction for $14,688--the second time this coin sold. Since then, the buyer of this beauty is changing collecting directions, so if you still desire this important major type, in high grade with CAC approval, you would do well to capture this when it comes up for bidding. The current PCGS value is listed at $13,500. Few others will ever be able to compare to the charms of this incredible coin. VERY RARE any finer. Good luck! Cert. Number 50180065 PCGS # 4265
