1837 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Reeded Edge. 50 CENTS. GR-20. Rarity-3. MS-63 (PCGS).Lustrous satin surfaces are lightly toned in iridescent champagne-apricot, pale pink and powder blue toning that is warmer on the reverse. Sharply to fully struck with a touch of glossiness to the texture, yet an uncommonly smooth appearance in hand for the assigned grade. Given the scarcity and key date status of the first year 1836, this appealing 1837 is seemingly earmarked for inclusion in a Mint State type set that requires a representative of the brief Reeded Edge, 50 CENTS Capped Bust half dollar design.From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
