Bust Half Dollars
1828 50C Square Base 2, Small 8s, Large Letters, O-115, R.2, MS64 PCGS. Golden-brown and yellow-green colors frame the creamy pearl-gray centers. A well-struck example, since the major devices are consistently bold and only a few of the peripheral stars do not possess full central definition. Satiny luster rolls unencumbered across this originally toned and undisturbed near-Gem. A small bluish-gray accent near star 9 confirms the originality and serves as a useful marker. Population: 37 in 64 (6 in 64+), 13 finer (11/16).
Ex: Palm Beach Signature (Heritage, 11/2004), lot 7395.
