- 1809 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-114a. Rarity-5. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC. This is a wonderfully original example, both sides with delicate antique silver tinting that gives way to vivid powder blue and champagne-rose iridescence at the borders. Lustrous for the grade with an engaging satin texture, the surfaces are overall smooth in hand with a bright, fresh appearance. Otherwise sharply struck, mentionable softness is confined to the junction of the eagle's right wing and leg on the reverse. A newcomer to the modern census listings for the 1809 Overton-114 dies, this piece qualifies as CC#1 based on the Spring 2019 revision of Stephen J. Herrman's AMBPR for Bust half dollars, which ranking includes both early and late die states. Off the market since 1987, and sure to have no difficulty finding its way into another advanced Capped Bust half dollar variety collection. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS# 39401. NGC ID: 24ES. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
