Bust Half Dollars
1827 50C Curl Base 2, O-146, R.2, MS63 PCGS. A whopping 49 varieties exist for the 1827 Bust halves (not counting sub-varieties by die state), yet only two varieties exist with the Curl Base 2. Each is of great interest to collectors of the series. This O-146 example displays a faint vertical line through the horizontal shield lines far above gule 6, while the second A of AMERICA nearly touches the top arrowhead. The coin is sharply struck with some nominal incompleteness on the left-hand star centers, but crisply defined across the central motifs. Pleasing grayish-gold toning deepens around the raised devices with strong mint luster beneath the frosty surfaces. This Select half dollar ranks near the low end of the Condition Census for the variety.
