1830 Medium 0 - O.119 R.1 PCGS AU 50+
Ex Robison. Ellis Robison was a noted collector of US copper, silver and gold coins. His magnificent collection was sold by Stack’s in series of 3 sales, the half-dollars appearing in February 1982. They included a pair of proofs, 1830 and 1831, along with mint state examples of an 1811/10 O.102, the 1813 50/UNI and 1823 Broken 3. The coin here offered is from that sale. The Robison provenance is noted on the PCGS label. The coin is gorgeous. Album toning surrounds the brilliant centers. The coin retains most of its original luster. The PCGS label says, “Small 0.” Overton preferred a “Medium 0” designation. From the collection of Ethan Levine. Estimate: $550 to $800
