<B>1794 50C Good 6 PCGS.</B></I> O-104, R.5. Although the toning tends to obscure certain fine details, we do not see any evidence of the die cracks that appear on later examples.<BR>Dusky gold toning over light gray surfaces with traces of iridescent accents, subdues the appearance of this pleasing piece. A few fine scratches and other insignificant imperfections are consistent with the grade.<BR>This variety ranks among the more plentiful of all 1794 die marriages, and yet only 50 to 60 pieces are known in all grades. While O-101 is clearly the most common variety, O-104 and O-105 are also available with a little patience. All other 1794 varieties are rarer than these. While this specimen is not among Condition Census pieces, its early die state is particularly relevant to the advanced specialist.<BR>Haseltine-2; Beistle 2-C; Overton-5; Hilt 1-B; PCGS# 6051; Encyclopedia-4552.<BR><I>Ex: John Guisinger (Denver ANA, 8/2006).<BR>From The Westmoreland County Collection of Early Bust Halves, 1794-1807.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Robert Scot<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
