1833 -  O.108 R.1 PCGS AU 58 CAC


Ex Michael Summers.  This is an uncirculated coin with a trace of cabinet friction on the cheek.  The coin is essentially as struck, with its original allotment of luster intact. The surfaces are first rate.  Pay attention to the detail in Liberty’s curls, often a sore point on half-dollars of 1833.  Acquired from your cataloguer at the Jan. 2007 FUN Show.  Earlier in the renowned collection of Michael Summers.  Mike is a planetary scientist and professor at George Mason University.  In the mid-1980’s, while earning his PhD. at Cal Tech, he honed his attribution skills, enjoying great success as a cherry picker at local coin shows, particularly the Long Beach Shows.  Est. $1,000 to $1,500.
