1810 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-105. Rarity-2. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.A boldly and originally toned example with a splash of particularly prominent toning over the lower reverse. The surfaces are smooth and satiny in texture, the strike sharp in all areas save for along the left obverse border. While Overton-105 is a plentiful die marriage of the 1810 half dollar in an absolute sense, early date issues in this series are much more challenging to locate in attractive Mint State preservation than their counterparts from the late 1820s and 1830s. Indeed, the present example qualifies as Condition Census for the variety, and it is ranked as such in the Autumn 2018 revision to Stephen J. Herrmans Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794-1839. A strong candidate for inclusion in an advanced variety set of this popular and widely collected early half dollar series.From Heritages Signature Coin Auction of March 2013, lot 3498; our ANA Auction of August 2017, lot 1012.
