- Condition Census 1820/19 Half Dollar 1820/19 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-102. Rarity-1. Curl Base 2. MS-63 (PCGS). This is a captivating example with subtle rose-gold color at the centers and vibrant navy-blue iridescence glowing at the borders. The strike is remarkably sharp throughout, leaving the crucial overdate feature very distinct and visible to the naked eye. A faint reflectivity glimmers in the fields and contrasts the richly frosted devices. Only 2 coins have been graded finer by PCGS in this category. Overton-102 is the only die marriage that corresponds to the 1820/19 Curl Base 2 Guide Bookvariety. It is popular with early half dollar enthusiasts due to the bold naked eye overdate feature; remnants of the 19 are plainly evident within the primary digits 20. Survivors are available in an absolute sense, which means that many collectors are able to own and appreciate this variety. While a number of Mint State coins are included in the extant population, they remain the province of advanced numismatists. Firmly in the lower ranks of the Condition Census, the present example would do nicely in any high grade collection or Registry Set. Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection. PCGS Population: 3; 2 finer in the O-102 category. PCGS# 39574. NGC ID: 24FE. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
