|
1823 (O-111a) and 1834 Large Date, Small Letters (O-104).
|
|
Courteous Collection of Early Type. 1823 O-111a offers dusky grey that cedes to ebony coloration toward the rims, and should grade VF-30. 1834 O-104 gleams with plenty of luster that should allow... |

1823 (O-103) NGC AU-53.
|
|
A new copy of the fifth edition of Overton's famed "United States Early Half Dollar Varieties" arrived at Scotsman International Headquarters just in time to attribute O-103 as the die-marriage... |

|
1823 (O-106a) PCGS AU-58.
|
|
Sometimes referenced as the "tampered 3", O-106a features a bit of distortion at the junction of the loops in the final digit of the date. Excellent luster roams the fields of this slightly prooflike... |

| 639 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $1,450.00 |
|
1823 (O-105) NGC MS-61.
|
|
Seemingly undergraded given the blistering luster that roams the fields, with delightful frosty texture in the fields, especially right above the date. Intriguing veins of cobalt-blue and... |

1823 (O-104) PCGS AU-50.
|
|
7070 Collection. Toning reflects the classic situation of an album coin, quite likely a Wayte Raymond folder that imparted wide bands of pleasing pastel-rainbow colors concentrically and... |

| 566 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $300.00 |
|
1823 and two 1830, attributed by NGC.
|
|
Comparable details prevail for this trio, reflecting grades within about ten points of each other. 1823 O-104 (VF/cleaned) probably has VF-25 details, and the cleaning is not excessive since some... |

|
1823 (O-104, R.3) PCGS AU-50.
|
|
"2" is low in the date, and the center dot is indented, aiding attribution of O-104, and R.3 die marriage. Nicely struck, with doubling of the profile readily evident below the chin and on the... |
|
| 480 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,050.00 |
|
1823 (O-106, R.3) NGC MS-61.
|
|
"3" is well formed and taller than the neighboring "2" in the date, which advances attribution rapidly to O-106, listed as an R.3 die marriage. Obviously mint-state, the surfaces exhibit sparkling... |
|
| 544 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $575.00 |
|
1823 (O-112, R.1) AU details/questionable color.
|
|
Fully uncirculated and well struck, nearly every aspect of a gem grade characterizes this eye-catching bust half. Full, strong luster shimmers around the satin textured fields, and all devices... |

|
1823 "3, Die Crack" (O-106a, R.2) XF.
|
|
Reflectivity is suppressed by thick, murky tone, yet remnants of luster may still be seen in the protected edge areas. A dig above the eagle's head must be noted. |
|
| 744 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $1,150.00 |
|
3x 1823: Broken 3 (O-101, R.3), Irregular 3 (O-106a, R.1) and Ugly 3...
|
|
1823 is, of course, a veritable treasure trove of die varieties for the bust half collector, and this lot is comprised of a trio featuring irregularities with the "3". Included are: 1823 O-101... |

|
1823 "Reworked 3" (O-106a, R.2) NGC XF-45 Insert.
|
|
CONSIGNOR: Another pretty Reiver coin. I kept the insert with it and hope Scotsman's pictures are better than the ones from the auction. CATALOGER: (Ex. Heritage 1/27/2006: 22878) Envelope and NGC... |

|
1823 "Tall 3" (O-112, R.1) AU.
|
|
CONSIGNOR: This was just a type coin for a while, not meant to go into the Forest Park set. But I really like the luster and it's awful to unc. Really, not much wear you can see anywhere. ... |
|
| 747 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $450.00 |
|
1823 "Normal 3" (O-107, R.2) AU.
|
|
CONSIGNOR: One of the best. Tons and tons of color on this one, more blue and green than anything else. And I always like the 1823s, just all the other early 1820s. CATALOGER: Lavish iridescence... |

|
1823 O-101 VF-20 and 1823 O-110 XF-45.
|
|
The 1823 O-101a “patched 3” grades VF-20 and the 1823 O-110 grades XF-45. The latter coin is similar to the “ugly three” and “patched three” varieties, but has no imaginative name in the Overton... |

|
1823 O-106a PCGS VF-35, 1823 O-103 NGC VF-35, and 1825 O-115 PCGS...
|
|
All three of these coins feature dense, original patination, but the 1823 O-106a is notable for the extent of thick crust across both sides. Very nice! The 1823 O-103 displays classic originality,... |

| 566 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $600.00 |
|
1823 O-104 NGC AU-55.
|
|
This is a fantastic Capped Bust half. Although technically graded perfectly by NGC (as AU-55), the holder fails to mention that this coin is – especially on the reverse – significantly prooflike. ... |
|
| 567 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $675.00 |
|
1823 O-103 PCGS AU-50 and 1826 O-110 NGC AU-58 .
|
|
The 1823 is admittedly a little weak for the assigned grade level of AU-50, as one might hope to see a bit more luster in the fields, though some bluntness of strike may be characteristic of the... |
|
| 569 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $2,900.00 |
|
1823 O-108a PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Over time, as it is used to strike hard, metal planchets, finer details of the design incused into a die are lost through die wear, and deterioration of the die itself slowly transpires. Inadvertent... |

|
1823 O-104, R-3. AU-58++.
|
|
This visually stunning specimen has resplendent surfaces that are enhanced by an exquisite blue iridescence that accents the motifs. A radiant orange-gold glow encircles these chief design elements. ... |

|
1823 O-104, R-3. AU-58++.
|
|
The satiny silver-gray surfaces of this issue are enhanced by intertwined hues of rose and blue. Some unobtrusive ticks and flecks, as would be expected for this grade level, are described for... |

1823 O-103, R-2 ANACS MS-62.
|

The delightful, pewter-gray surfaces are embellished with crimson-gold and blue hues. Their satinlike aspect glistens beneath these exceptional tones. Any ticks or flecks detected with a glass are... |
