- 1831 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-120. Rarity-6-. VG-8 (PCGS). No segments between words on edge. A silver gray example with good centering between universally denticulated borders. Struck from a late die state, there is considerable swelling evident on the obverse, but both sides retain bold outline detail to all design elements. Faint hairlines and a touch of glossiness to the texture points to an old, light cleaning, but there are no sizeable marks and the eye appeal is quite strong for the assigned grade. This elusive variety of the 1831 half dollar, newly discovered as of the late 1980s, combines the reverse of the 1831 Overton-107 pairing with a new obverse die. A find for the specialist. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Earlier ex Superior's sale of the H.W. Blevins Collection of Early Half Dollar and Silver Dollars, June 1988, lot 3513. PCGS# 39857. NGC ID: 24FV.
