1809 -  O.112 R.5- VF 35 CAC


A wonderful coin for die variety collectors!  This circulated coin remained unscathed during times when coins were cleaned and otherwise “improved.”  Antique grey toning, lighter on the devices, mimics Grandma’s silver (a depiction coined by my late, great friend Henry Hilgard).  The surfaces are remarkably smooth.  Completing a set of the 15 die pairs from 1809 is a daunting but doable task.  Seven varieties rate R.4 or R.5.  This CAC approved rarity is salve for collectors infected with bust half fever.  From the Kings Park Collection.  
Estimate: $400 to $600
