1827 O.108 R4 Square Base 2 Capped Bust half dollar, ANACS VF30.  Note that this is Die State 108.2, as described by the very informative, revised 2nd edition BHNC publication, "Die State Progressions of the Capped Bust Half Dollar Die Varieties 1807-1836" (which is available from us exclusively, either here on ebay or on our website).  A wonderfully crusty, totally pleasing, supremely original coin.  A super sweet looking, truly antique patina like this is really hard to find these days, especially in a modest, VF30 holder!  Thanks for your participation, enjoy...and good luck!

There are new books on Capped Bust Halves that you should be aware of, and we can supply you with copies of each.  Serious collector and researcher Robert Powers has recently published two volumes: "US Half Dollars, 1807 - 1826, Variety Attribution Guide" (Volume 1), and "US Half Dollars, 1827 - 1836, Variety Identification Guide" (Volume 2).  Powers' work is not intended to take the place of Overton, but rather to serve as very useful and informative adjuncts to those books.  Various shortcuts, tips and a bit of a different way of looking at attribution is what Powers does best, and we find further information - in any form - to be both interesting and helpful.  Please see our other ebay listings, or our website to order yours today!
