1822 50C Overton 110a MS (PCGS#39598)

February Premier Session 2018

详细说明: Gorgeous and original with rich iridescent toning in shades of deep blue at the rims, accented by crimson and gold, with lighter antique silver-gray to the centers. The obverse fields are so clean they have semi reflectivity when tilted under a light, with luster peeking out from beneath the lovely shades of color. Sharply struck throughout and a splendid Condition Census example of this variety. The quality of the surfaces is superior to the vast majority of all gem caliber coins. The fields and devices are free from any distracting marks or lines, the luster radiates on the silky smooth fields, and all the details on both sides are boldly defined from a razor sharp strike. PCGS 10, NGC 9. For all die varieties, only 9 are graded finer at NGC. The only relevant auction record is for a PCGS MS64 at $4,847 (August 2012) for an early die state example of the O-110 variety. There are two reported MS66 coins of the O-110 variety, the Col. Green/Newman coin of the early die state which brought an astounding $52,875, and one offered in the ANR Frog Run sale of 2004 of the “a” die state (with a crack through the left hand stars).This coin has sold at auction exactly one time, realizing $12,925 in March 2015. That seems reasonable, considering a PCGS/CAC MS65 sold for $13,513 in our Regency 17 Auction in May of 2016. Opportunity knocks loudly here for anyone who desires a GEM Capped Bust half dollar.
