This Choice VF Capped Bust half dollar has undoubtedly seen considerable circulation, but much detail remains on Liberty's curls, and the eagle's feathers and talons. The obverse features strong border elements, while the reverse legends are slightly drawn to moderately soft rims. An even layer of olive-gray patina covers each side. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Heritage Newman IX, November 2017, lot 15437, realized $216. Images and description courtesy of Heritage Auctions. |
