Bust Half Dollars
1815/2 50C O-101a, R.3 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. The occasional wayward, hair-thin lines not withstanding, few signs of cleaning disturb the surfaces of this sharply defined, key date Bust half. It last appeared in the 1989 sale of The Brooks Collection, where it was described as: "By far, a much nicer-than-average example of this desirable 19th-century issue." Pale champagne-gold and soft-gray toning show occasional blue accents for quite pleasing eye appeal despite the minimal old wipe.
Ex: The Brooks Collection (Bowers and Merena, 6/1989), lot 1260.
