- Important Mint State 1809 Half Dollar
1809 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-107. Rarity-3. III Edge. MS-62 (PCGS).
Vibrant splashes of powder-blue, violet, and golden iridescence accent the overall olive-grey patina on both sides. Well centered with nicely crisp denticles and satiny luster in the fields. The surfaces remain free of notable abrasions under inspection, and a natural planchet mark in the upper reverse serves as a convenient pedigree marker. A very attractive piece with only 10 graded finer by PCGS.
This is an important survivor from the 1809 O-107 dies, the Condition Census for which tops out at the MS-62 level per Stephen J. Herrman in the Autumn 2020 revision to Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839. The variety is readily identified by wide spacing of the 18 in the date and a rough die lump to the left of the C. on the reverse. With the III Edge variety adding further desirability, this lovely example is sure to see spirited bidding among collectors specializing in this popular 19th century half dollar series.
Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection.
PCGS Population: 4; 10 finer.
PCGS# 6094. NGC ID: 24ES.
