1837 H10C Seated, Large Date MS (PCGS#4311)

March 2021 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1837 Liberty Seated Half Dime. No Stars. Large Date. MS-65 (PCGS). Here is an exquisite Gem with superior quality and eye appeal even at the assigned grade level. Both sides are beautifully toned with rose-gray at the centers and bolder steel-blue iridescence at the borders. The texture is smooth and satiny, the strike razor sharp throughout the design. 1837 is one of only two Liberty Seated half dimes to display the No Stars design on the obverse. This issue employed two distinct date punches, Large Date and Small Date although the actual size variation is relatively imperceptible. Also used on dies of the preceding Capped Bust type, the Large Date style is best distinguished by the narrow, peaked 1. The Small Date displays a flat-topped 1 and a nearly straight digit placement, characteristics found on 1837 half dimes struck later in the year, as well as coins struck in 1838. The 1837 was saved in significant numbers, and there are several hundred Uncirculated examples known. However, most grade MS-64 or lower, making this MS-65 example one of the finer coins extant. Sure to please type collectors or specialists in Liberty Seated coinage. Provenance: From the Bimyway Collection. PCGS# 4311. NGC ID: 232M. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
