- Near Gem 1837 Reeded Edge Half Dollar 1837 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Reeded Edge. 50 CENTS. GR-17. Rarity-1. MS-64+ (PCGS). CAC. A boldly lustrous champagne-gold specimen with exceptional eye appeal. Heavy cartwheel activity engages both sides of this sharply struck beauty. A minor bagmark on Liberty's cheek serves as a convenient pedigree marker, and the surfaces are otherwise pristine and without distractions. Clashing at the centers and cracks in the peripheries will certainly draw interest from specialists of the series. This is a superior example of the Reeded Edge, 50 CENTS type, produced in 1836 and 1837. The reverse legend was changed to read HALF DOL. in 1838, establishing this as a desirable two-year type. The 1836 issue, once considered a pattern, is remarkably scarce, directing considerable demand to the coins of 1837 to serve as type pieces. Just 33 coins have been graded finer by PCGS and only 16 rank higher at CAC across all services. A stunning example that is destined for a phenomenal type collection or specialized set by Graham variety. PCGS Population: 9; 33 finer. PCGS# 6176. NGC ID: 24G4.
