1805 O.104 T-10 R5- Draped Bust Half Dollar PCGS XF40, ex. Norweb

From the Norweb Collection, Bowers and Merena, November 1988, lot 3035. No earlier pedigree information is available, but this coin does have a similar look to Norweb coins I'm familiar with that were purchased by Albert Fairchild Holder (Emery May Norweb's father) before his death in 1913. The coin is beautiful, having original medium gray centers surrounded by antique shades of gold, blue, russet and rose gold. The surfaces are generally smooth (though a couple old marks are found), there is plenty of luster and eye appeal in abundance!
