1811 Capped Bust Half Dollar. O-109. Rarity-3. Small 8. MS-62 (PCGS). Rich mauve-gray, powder blue and pale gold patina is evenly distributed over the reverse, the obverse with a mottling of antique silver intermingled in and below the center. Boldly struck and pleasingly smooth in hand, some muting to the luster precludes a higher Mint State grade. This is a scarcer die pairing of the 1811-dated half dollar issue, represented here by a handsome coin that is not all that far removed from Condition Census. From the Abigail Collection, Part II.
