FROM THE PERFECTION COLLECTION OF CAPPED BUST HALF DOLLARS A truly amazing quality 1824 O-117, and this high Condition Census example is likely the FINEST KNOWN for this variety. Easily identified by the "tines" coming off the eagle's left wing. An exquisite luster radiates boldly with a smooth, rolling cartwheel brilliance on both sides .The sweeping bands really enliven the stunning original toning. Shades of teal at the rims meld into an apricot-rose gold and hints of original silver. Sharply struck devices stand out boldly with razor sharp definition on both sides. The surfaces are essentially flawless and free of any sort of distracting contact of any kind. The eye appeal is exceptional and very high end! It is no surprise that our sister company Legend Numismatics sold this coin to Mr. Perfection. PCGS 9, NGC 4, CAC 3. There are three in MS66+ and just a single coin graded finer for the date. The most recent PCGS MS66+ CAC was the famed Eliasberg-Pogue-Chicago Collection coin we sold in September 2021 for a record $49,938. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $45,000 and we would not be shocked if this GEM sold for that or more! Just a single MS68 that has never appeared in auction is graded finer. This beauty is perfect for an advanced type set or another AMAZING date set of Capped Bust half dollars. Cert. Number 25356205 PCGS # 6137
