Owner Comments:
O.119, R3.
A special variety for 1828. It is the only one struck from the small legend letters reverse; note also the "filled A" in AMERICA. And look closely to see that STATES was punched too far left then the WD was lapped and repunched correctly.
This handsome half dollar has brilliant, full luster with satiny surfaces. Sharp strike and free of any distracting abrasions. Wonderful eye appeal.
