1829 -  O.111a R.2 PCGS AU 58


Ex John Tidwell and Keith DavignonThis colorful, semi-prooflike 1829 last appeared in MB 38, lot 73 at the Jan. 2014 FUN Show.  Here is the brief description:
Dazzling orange and blue obverse toning.  The lightly toned reverse is fully prooflike as are portions of the obverse.  A pair of marks under the E of the motto are hardly worth mention.  Here is another eye-grabbing capped bust half-dollar.  Davignon Collection, from my August 2004 sale of the Tidwell collection as ANACS MS 61.
Prooflike bust halves bring out the wolves in collectors.  This one sold reasonably in 2014, bringing $1,452.  Est. $1,200 to $1,800
