<B>1807 50C Capped Bust, Large Stars, 50 Over 20 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> O-112, R.1. In 1807 the Mint introduced a new half dollar design that collectors today have come to call the Turban Head or Capped Bust variety. Whether unfamiliarity with the new design or some more-pedestrian excuse is responsible for the remarkable dual-denomination error is an answer that is forever lost to numismatic posterity. <BR> Much of the former 2 is still visible on this remarkable example, which sports boldly struck olive-gray surfaces with glints of aqua in the recesses, with considerable luster and enormous eye appeal. While this is a common variety, its popularity is assured as a <I>Guide Book </B></I>example. A nice and collectible piece, sure to inspire spirited bidding. The "Large Stars, 50/20" is noted on the PCGS label.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> John Reich<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
