- High Condition Census 1822 O-106 Half Dollar
1822 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-106. Rarity-2. MS-65 (PCGS). CAC.
A highlight of the Bust half dollars from the Abigail Collection, this is a glorious Gem that really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Both sides are originally and attractively toned with iridescent olive and pinkish-gold peripheral highlights to otherwise sandy-silver surfaces. Intensely lustrous and fully struck, a noteworthy absence of even trivial blemishes further enhances this coin's incredible appeal. The die state is the earliest known for the 1822 Overton-106 attribution, the obverse with six die lines (as made) at the border below star 13. Writing in the Autumn 2021 revision to his AMBPR for Bust half dollars, Stephen J. Herrman reports a single MS-66 as CC#1 for this attribution. The present example is tied for CC#2 with two MS-65s in that listing, one each for the O-106 and O-106a die states. Whether they are an advanced type collector or discerning Capped Bust half dollar enthusiast, the interested bidder would be wise to pursue this offering with vigor.
Provenance: From the Abigail Collection, Part II.
PCGS Population (all die marriages of the issue): 13; 8 finer (MS-67+ finest). CAC Population: 5; 5.
