50C 1827/6 PCGS MS66 0-102 POUGE

We had the pleasure of selling this gorgeous GEM in our September 2018 sale of the Konstantine Collection, where we described it as: “Among the very FINEST KNOWN 1827/6s that survive for collectors, PCGS has only graded as single coin marginally finer as a 66+.

This beautifully toned, ultra-GEM grade example has a spectacular eye appeal and clearly was lovingly cared for and preserved, a remarkable miracle of numismatic survival. A bold, glowing luster radiates with superb brilliance on both sides, rolling along on with strong cartwheels. The spectacular visual allure is augmented by a very attractive pale blue that dominates toward the peripheries, fading and blending with hues of peach, gold, and soft pewter. The surfaces are smooth and the luster is ultra creamy with a strong satiny texture. The devices are sharply struck up and crisply rendered by an exacting blow from the dies. The eye appeal is intense and SUPERB. It is almost unbelievable that a Capped Bust half could look this beautiful after so many years!”

PCGS 3, NGC 2, CAC 3. This coin is a great value and needs a great home. We paid $37,600.00 01/2020. Opportunity knocks loud here!
