1833 (O-102, R.1) AU. 1833 (O-102, R.1) AU.
Lot Title: 1833 (O-102, R.1) AU.
Description: A must-see for Overton variety collectors, because attribution meets all the demands for O-102, except for one intriguing exception: the die-line on the reverse that should connect "C" to the olive branch is not there! This leads to an interesting discussion about whether the die could have been removed from the press at some point, and had "work" done to its face, leading to accidental placement of the die line that appears on all other examples that your cataloger has seen. A nice AU example, this coin displays terrific luster and pleasing patina that shows no signs of cleaning or other molestation. (PCGS# 006163)

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $250.00
High Estimate: $300.00

709The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$150.00
1833 (O-101), 1835 (O-109), and 1836 (O-105) all VF.
Campania Estate. Nicely matched and attributed, each of these should grade nicely into the very-fine range. 1833 displays some luster and a hint of rim tone, while 1835 and 1836 offer ideal...
552The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$270.00
1833 (O-106, R.2) NGC AU Details/improperly cleaned.
Evidence of cleaning is scant at worst, and at best, this is a bust half-dollar that needs to be cracked out and simply resubmitted, since it seems to be a pleasing example of O-106, Overton's "laced...
553The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$500.00
1833 (O-104, R.1) PCGS AU-58 (green label).
In years past, before the advent of certification, a seller may have been sorely tempted to list this 1833 O-104 as an uncirculated coin, since full luster penetrates the fields, and hardly even a...
599The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$775.00
1833 O-107 PCGS AU-55.
There are still some undergraded coins lurking about in old green-label PCGS holders, and this surely must be one of them. A solid strike and plenty of mint luster lend an essentially mint-state...
600The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$875.00
1833 O-103 MS-60.
This is the kind of coin that can drive graders to madness. Although it faces up as a near-Choice Uncirculated piece, an area of friction on the cheek, and an additional such areas on the bust, must...
601The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$1,000.00
1833 O-106 NGC MS-60.
An extremely bright, thin ring of turquoise brilliance illuminates the edges of both sides of this gorgeous bust half. Despite a tiny bit of cabinet friction on the exact center of Liberty’s cheek,...
588The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$330.00
1833 O-106, R-2. AU-58+.
This magnificent specimen radiates an intense ivory resplendence. "RIB" on the reverse's scroll is faint on this otherwise superbly struck variety.
589The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$975.00
1833 O-110 NGC MS-62.
This is a well struck, highly lustrous Capped Bust Half Dollar. The intense luster is highlighted by blue, gold and mauve tones surrounding the stars and lettering. Devoid of any major contact...
