1807 50C O-110a AU55 Certification #13380096, PCGS #39352

1807 50C Draped Bust AU55 PCGS. CAC. O-110a, R.2 Final use of Reverse F. All the die cracks listed in Overton for this advanced state of the dies are present on this coin. Additionally, there are a pair of die clash marks above star 5 on the reverse that resemble "shooting stars." The surfaces are brilliant with significant mint luster present around the devices. Weakness of strike is localized on each side: On the obverse the lower hair curls are indistinct, while on the reverse the eagle's head and stars in front of the head are soft. Lightly abraded, there are no singularly important or distinctive marks that can be used as helpful pedigree identifiers. The Condition Census for this state of the dies ranges from MS62 to MS65. Thus, this piece is outside the Condition Census but the bright, lustrous surfaces make this an appealing choice for the value-minded collector. From The Westmoreland County Collection of Early Bust Halves, Part Two. 2008 April Rosemont, IL (CSNS) Signature Coin Auction #1104 Lot 1016.
