1845-O 50C No Drapery MS (PCGS#6250)

The November 2011 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1845-O Liberty Seated Half Dollar. WB-101, Die Pair WB-12. Rarity-4. Late Die State. Large O. No Drapery. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC. Advanced die polishing on the obverse has removed most of the extra drapery folds at Liberty's right (facing) elbow, creating a late die state of this issue that has gained tremendously in popularity due to its inclusion in recent edition of the <em>Guide Book</em>. Of note is that several die marriages of the 1845-O half dollar display this No Drapery feature in later states. Further confirming the advanced die state of this particular WB-12 example are spindly die cracks (as struck) on the obverse to the left of the scroll end and on the reverse through the letter M in AMERICA and at the left foot of the first letter A in the same word. Sharply struck with considerable luster remaining, light silver-olive toning is much bolder on the reverse.
