Lot #741 - 1795 O-110 NGC XF-40
Half Dollars-Flowing Hair
Bachelor Simon Collection. Overton-110. Evidence of cracks on either side had not yet occurred when this splendidly detailed example fell off the minting press in the first half of 1795 when all flowing-hair examples were struck, but faint clash marks have already formed above the eagle's shoulder. For type collectors familiar with the challenges of finding a nice 1795, this example features boldly raised rims and dentilation, pleasantly original surface color and adjustment marks limited strictly to the very upper right reverse. A brief pinscratch left of the date blended into the patina decades ago and offers no distraction from steady eye-appeal.

Lot #715 - 1809 III Edge O-109a PCGS AU-55
Hammer: $1,800
Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Lettered Edge
Overton-109a can be quickly attributed by noting a heavy die crack through AMERICA, diagnostic also of the die-state. The borders for this dynamic, near mint example feature highly attractive album toning painted in lavender-orange, russet-gold and ocean-blue colors. Substantial luster dominates the fields but as expected, it disappears within the widest expanses due to finger wear. The cataloger notes a few unimportant pinscratches over the eagle's beak and a trio of minor linear abrasions in front of the portrait.
