1836/1336 50C O-108 Lettered Edge MS (PCGS#39956)

The Regency Auction 47

详细说明: A very CHOICE example of this very popular O-108 variety, well within the Condition Census which has the Overton coin an NGC MS65 at the top, and then a few MS64s (including the Newman MS64+). Its blundered date, originally punched in the working die as 1336 and then repunched 1836. There is an intense, brilliant satiny luster that bursts from below a beautiful array of iridescent blue, rose, lilac, olive, apricot, and clear gold hues. Well struck, with the underdigits of the incorrectly punched date visible to the naked eye. There are some marks and lines, mostly minor in nature, well hidden under the toning. The eye appeal is quite nice overall. Ex. Heritage, April 2015, lot 4458; Stack's Bowers, October 2018, lot 507; our consignor PCGS 1, NGC 2. In its most recent appearance, this near-GEM sold for $6,900 and the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $8,000. This is a very nice example of this popular Red Book variety worthy of any high grade cabinet of Capped Bust half dollars. Cert. Number 36529240 PCGS # 39955.00
