1812/1 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-102a. Rarity-2. Small 8. AU-55 (NGC).Appreciably lustrous for the assigned grade, this coin also offers nearly complete denticulation around the borders and bold to sharp detail to the central design elements. Lightly toned in silver gray, direct lighting calls forth iridescent undertones of champagne-apricot. As with all overdates, especially the early dated ones, the 1812/1 Overton-102 and its 102a die state are among the more popular varieties in the Capped Bust half dollar series.From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
