1826 O.108a Capped Bust Half Dollar PCGS AU55 CAC, gray-dirt perfection

CAC approved. Gray-dirt perfection! This is exactly what I want all my coins to look like, not just my Bust halves. Gray-dirt is the reverential term I use to describe a coin that has simply been left alone. Lovingly cared for? Probably, but more importantly, simply left alone. Even a loving caretaker can be overzealous! The surfaces are hard and smooth, the cartwheel is virtually complete and the slightly dusty, totally original antique patina is fabulous. This is Die State 108.4, per the BHNC's new die state handbook, "Die State Progressions of the Capped Bust Half Dollar Die Varieties 1807-1836", which is a very modest cost item, available right here on our website.
