1817 50C MS62 PCGS Punctuated Date
<B>1817 50C 181.7 MS62 PCGS.</B></I> O-103, R.2. The popular "Punctuated Date" variety. Deep aquamarine and lavender toning embraces this Capped Bust half. The upper obverse and lower reverse appear to be double struck. Star 7 is attenuated, as are 50 C and the lower two arrow shafts. LIBERTY is spread, and the top of the cap and the fletchings show a prior, low relief impression. But the centers, the lower obverse, and the upper reverse show no indication of doubling. Perhaps the dies of the screw press were misaligned. The stars are needle-sharp, while Liberty's neck curls are softly impressed.<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>)
