- 1805/4 Draped Bust Half Dollar. O-103a, T-11. Rarity-5+. VF-20 (PCGS).
Deeply toned in steel blue shades with subtle apricot highlights across the devices. Evenly worn but still nicely defined for the variety, showing the usual softness at E of LIBERTY. A few scattered marks are visible in the fields but none are individually distracting. The beginning of a cud is readily evident on this middle die state example equivalent to Tompkins Die Stage 3/2. The obverse cracks are well formed though the cud at stars 1 and 2 is not as prominent as it becomes in later states.
Overton-103a is one of the scarcer die marriages of the 1805-dated half dollar issue, representing an intermediate state between the unshattered dies (O-103) and the even rarer terminal state (O-103b). Seldom do examples of either the O-103a or O-103b come to market, making this an important offering for specialists.
PCGS# 6070. NGC ID: 24EH.
