1831 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-104. Rarity-1. MS-65 (PCGS).

Handsome pewter gray patina blankets both sides of this richly original Gem. Blushes of iridescent lavender, powder blue and champagne-apricot are also evident as the surfaces dip into a light, further enhancing this coin's already strong visual appeal. Softly frosted in texture and pleasingly smooth in hand, a tiny toning spot on the reverse at the first letter U in PLURIBUS serves as a useful provenance marker. Tied for CC#1 for the 1831 O-104 dies in the Spring 2020 revision to the Herrman census, this is a lovely coin with much to recommend it to the high grade type or variety collector.

PCGS# 6159. NGC ID: 24FV.

From the Dazzling Rarities Collection. Earlier from Heritage's FUN Signature Auction of January 2013, lot 4299.
