Seated Half Dollars
1840 50C Small Letters, Repunched Date, FS-301, WB-102, Die Pair 1, R.2, MS65 PCGS. CAC. Booming luster and a refreshingly mark-free appearance affirm the high quality of this early Seated half. Wisps of autumn-gold grace the obverse margin. Several star centers lack absolute detail, but the overall strike is good. Struck from clashed dies, and housed in an old green label holder with CAC endorsement.
This Cherrypickers' variety shows clear repunching at 40 of the date -- the 4 is repunched north, the 0 slightly northwest. A faint die crack bisects the reverse from N in UNITED to between E and R of AMERICA. A few other short, light die cracks confirm the mid-to-late state of the dies. Population: 8 in 65, 6 finer (9/17).
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 5/2008), lot 652..
