- 1813 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-109a. Rarity-5. Single Leaf. VF-35 (PCGS).
A significant example of this scarce variety displaying a blend of slate grey and lavender hues. The surfaces are uniformly worn but free from any consequential blemishes, and the eye appeal remains strong. The Overton-109a variety represents a new listing for the 5th edition of the Overton reference (Parsley, 2014), denoting a late, lapped state of the O-109 dies. This resulted in the erasure of one of the leaves from below the eagles wing on the reverse, similar to the more well-known instances in 1812 (110b), 1814 (O-105a), and 1817 (O-106a). Though a relatively new classification, the present example is among the finest of the recognized examples, ranking superior to the VF-20 (PCGS) example offered in February 2018 as part of the Loma Linda Collection, Part II, and ranking just below the EF-45 coin sold by us in our January 2009 Orlando sale. An important offering for half dollar specialists.
PCGS# 516341.
