Description
1813 Capped Bust Half, O-103 R-2 Fine Finding 100+ year old Halves in circulated grades of Fine without any problems, with only normal honest wear if often difficult. This is natural grey and almost perfect for the grade. The Overton variety is O-103 and this is the only variety with this reverse in 1813- The distinguishing diagnostic is a small dot at the top of the left wing. That left wing is often a strike issue and appearing with much less detail than the right wing, something the grading agencies still miss quite often. The rarity rating has recently moved from R-2 to R-1.
Provenance
From the estate of a Maryland collector. Discovered in a 17th century iron lock box, lot # 4117
