1827 Sq. Base 2 -  O.117 R.3 PCGS MS 64 CAC


A stunning coin.  No surprise, given the PCGS grade and CAC seal of approval.  Brelsford found the coin 15 years ago in Heritage’s Jan. 2009 FUN Show sale, lot 2824, when floor bidding was still de riguer.  He prevailed at $4,321.50.  This coin triggered his interest in the Capped Bust series.  It was his first bust half.  “I just fell in love with the coin,” he says.  The obverse displays gold and iridescent turquoise toning.  The reverse is blazing white.  Weakness in the motto is offset by razor sharp feathers, talons and leaves.  Tied for #3 in the Condition Census.

Estimate: $3,200 to $4,000
