1809 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-107a. Rarity-4. IIIII Edge. AU-53 (PCGS). Secure Holder.;This pleasing, mostly silver gray 1809 half dollar has subtle golden highlights at the borders. The striking detail is suitably bold for a late die state example from the early Capped Bust half dollar series, although the shattered obverse imparted little of the finer detail to Libertys hair curls. As a lustrous and appealing AU coin, it is sure to appeal to discerning half dollar variety collectors.;Ex Heritages sale of the Donald R.
