1836 O.122 Capped Bust Half Dollar PCGS AU55 CAC, ex Logan, Summers

CAC approved. A gray-dirt beauty that is a very old friend. Mike Summers took it home from the Russ Logan sale (B&M, November 2002), and I bought it from Mike roughly 5 years later. When I sold, it went into a very advanced BHNCer's collection, and I recently had the opportunity to buy it back. The holder has a bit of weird "interior" crack, that does not affect the exterior or the integrity of the holder at all.  The coin is nearly perfect for the grade. This is Die State 122.1, 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.
