1837 Capped Bust Half Dollar. Reeded Edge. 50 CENTS. GR-23. Rarity-2. MS-62 (NGC). Clash marks from Liberty's chin and a die crack extending from star 10 to the rim provide the easiest pickup points for the GR-23 variety. Graham notes that this is a common variety that can be found in Mint State with relative ease, an observation reflected in both his and Koenings' respective censuses. The surfaces of this attractive MS-62 example are slate-gray with lighter silvery iridescence, particularly at the obverse periphery, where it forms a nearly complete halo. The strike is typical for the variety, with strong central definition and somewhat weaker peripheries. This is a middle die state example, without the rim break above the M of AMERICA that develops in the late die state. The reverse die would subsequently be reused for the much rarer GR-25 variety. Jim Koenings Commentary: This R-2 variety comes with stretched and weak obverse stars. More research is needed. The reverse was used for a second time in the 1837 GR-25 pairing. Provenance: From the Jim Koenings Collection. Earlier from Heritage's Long Beach Signature Auction of September 2014, lot 4124. PCGS# 6176. NGC ID: 24G4.
