1819/8 Lg. 9 - O.103a R.3 PCGS AU 55 CAC

Natural antique grey toning with smooth, unblemished surfaces. Soft luster throughout, especially at the peripheries where it brightens the stars and legend. The rarity rating recently slipped from R.4 to R.3, a surprise to this cataloguer. The eye appeal and originality of the piece made it easy for John Albanese to reward it with a CAC sticker. PCGS chose this coin to illustrate the subvariety on Coin Facts: https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1819-8-50c-overton-103a-large-9/39558/55. Ex Skidaway Island Collection, Heritage, Feb. 2015, lot 3752 as NGC AU 55 at $3,525.

Estimate: $2,400 to $3,000
