The Regency Auction 38

详细说明: A visually OUTSTANDING GEM 1826 half dollar that ranks in the Condition Census for the O-110 die marriage. Both sides of this remarkable beauty are framed by peripheral blue, gold, and apricot-rose tone, likely imparted by an ancient coin album where this coin resided for ages. Toning like this is incredibly RARE on GEM grade Bust half dollars. Not only are the surfaces exceptionally beautifully toned, but they are marvelously preserved. Even using a strong glass, all we can see on this beauty are a couple of very frost breaks on the cheek, but that is it! The reverse, taken on its own should grade MS67, it is essentially FLAWLESS! A glass reveals some mint made die clashes which add to the character and charm to this STUNNING Capped Bust half dollar. PCGS 40, NGC 49, CAC 13. This coin is worthy of a world class type set. Selling as part of the Horatio Morgan Collection, realizing $11,400, it was earlier lot 705 in Mid-American's January 1988 auction. This GEM is among the nicest examples of this date we have seen, and its eye appeal makes it ideal for placement in a GEM type set, superb Capped Bust half dollar set, or box of 20 sexy coins. Regardless, it is worth a very strong bid from any very serious collector. Cert. Number 38685041 PCGS # 6143.00
