Bust Half Dollars
1809 50C III Edge, O-109b, R.4, AU55 NGC. Apricot and sea-green patina embraces this well-struck half dollar. Luster shimmers across protected areas. A few faint slide marks rest beneath the attractive patina. A scarce late die stage, the heavy die crack through AMERICA and the denomination has breaks on the tips of the upper two arrow heads.
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2005), lot 6959.
