- 1805 Draped Bust Half Dollar. O-108, T-9. Rarity-4+. VF-35 (NGC).
Clouds of blue sapphire iridescence surround the devices of this handsome piece, accenting the grey and apricot patina that blankets the surfaces. A flaw in the planchet is well hidden in the hair above Liberty's ear, though any blemishes from circulation are unremarkable. The devices are very well struck and sharp for the assigned grade. A very fine die crack spans from the right wing tip across the tops of AME of AMERICA. The row of I-shaped indentations above the left shield point is visible on many examples from these dies, though their origin remains a mystery to researchers. Called EF when purchased from Kagin's in 1984 and still Choice in every respect.
Provenance: From the Sutton Court Collection of Early Half Dollar Varieties. Acquired privately from Kagin's, September 1984.
NGC Census: 4; 3 finer through MS-63 (O-108 variety only).
PCGS# 39281. NGC ID: 24EG.
