  • Seven Capped Bust half dollars net graded by ANACS
  • Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Lettered Edge
  • Varying degrees of cleaning from light to almost nonexistent plagues this seven coin group lot of ANACS certified Capped Bust half-dollars. Each of these issues are housed in the older style “soap box” holder and can be described as follows: an 1832 O-101 UNC Details Cleaned, an 1832 O-118 AU Details Cleaned, an 1833 O-102 AU Details Cleaned, an 1833 O-102 UNC Details Cleaned, an 1834 O-107 AU Details Cleaned, an 1835 O-101 AU Details Cleaned, and an 1836 O-119 AU Details Cleaned. All seven of these have begun to re-tone after the cleaning had taken place, giving them a better than average look for their assigned grades (ck).

  • Lot #458 - 1839 Large Letters, Head of 1838 NGC AU-55
  • Hammer: $7,500
  • Gold $10-Capped Bust to Right Eagle
  • Mintage: 25,801 for a variety appropriately known as the "old portrait" obverse. The design compared side by side with that of latter years is distinctly different and leaner by comparison. The right edge of "9" in the date shows recutting sometimes mistaken as 98, and the portrait has a swirl of hair laying across the ear, rather than above it.

    An untroubled example with minimal luster, the surface exhibits mostly mustard-yellow accents over pale golden color typical of the era. While rather well struck overall, five points of wear, likely joined by limits of then-current technology kept away perfect delineation of the wavy hair at the top of the portrait. The eagle's feathers are individually sculpted, however. The coin overall shows only expectant small abrasions -- not a single major mark requires separate mention.
