Lot Title:	1827 Square 2 O-131, R.2 AU
Lot Number:	431
Description:	Vida D. Bertie's Consignment. O-131 is a more difficult die-marriage to attribute (which ones are easy for 1827?) but can be confirmed by using Glenn R. Peterson's excellent "The Ultimate Guide To Attributing Bust Half Dollars" to locate a tiny die line above "LI", and a right-leaning zero in the denomination. Fortunately, the high grade of this AU-55 example allows easy appreciation of these diagnostics, as the vigorous cartwheel action on both sides captures immediate attention.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
