1836 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Lettered Edge. O-116. Rarity-2. 50/00. MS-61 (PCGS).Silvery pearlescence graces the satiny and cartwheeling complexion of this Mint State example. The devices are bold and paired with lustrous, minimally disturbed fields. A perennially popular die pairing with the blundered denomination on the reverse, and this is one of the finer pieces known from these dies according to the census listing in Steve Herrmans <em>Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized for Bust Half Dollars: 1794 - 1839</em>. A delightful treasure for the specialized collector.PCGS# 6170.From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
