1831 Capped Bust Half Dollar (50c)

The 1831 Capped Bust half dollar is from the later years of the series. These coins were minted in sizable quantities, with 5,873,660 pieces struck in Philadelphia, making them more accessible but still appealing due to their historical significance and still tougher in higher grades, particularly uncirculated levels.

This coin, graded MS63+ by PCGS, presents superior eye appeal for the grade. The coin boasts a rich, original luster that dances across its well-preserved surfaces. There are minimal contact marks, and the details remain sharp and clear, evident in both the obverse and reverse designs. This high-quality example will be a strong addition to a series set or a type collection.
