Owner's Comments

CAC, O-103, R.1. A triangular die defect on Liberty's left ribbon end and recutting on the upright of the 5 in 50 identify the O-103 die variety. Silver-gray and lavender shades blend with speckled accents of steel-blue and olive-green over this marvelously high-end near-Gem half dollar. The obverse is slightly deeper in tone, but both sides are equally lustrous and well-preserved.
