1824/1 50C MS64 NGC. CAC. O-101, R.2. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. The serif of the undertype 1 is clearly visible below the 4 in the date. There are two overdate varieties of 1824, O-101 and O-102. The 1824 O-102, struck later and from the same obverse die, is a noted rarity. The Newman coin is a joyous, sharply detailed Choice specimen that probably lies just outside the Condition Census. An electric ring of violet toning at the peripheries surrounds a blend of golden-brown and brilliant silver patina that covers the centers. The surfaces are well-preserved and vibrant mint luster adds to the outstanding eye appeal. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $6.50; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
