Owner Comments:

1809 50C XXXX edge O-102
ex Charlton Meyer
(Meyer owned a complete collection of regular issue Capped Bust Half Dollars, by date and die variety).

This is one of the XXXX edge varieties of the 1809 Bust Half. I go into a little more detail about the edge varieties for the 1809 Busties under the IIII edge, which follows.

This is a very nice example with a good strike, pleasing even brown patination throughout, and enough luster remaining (not visible in this photograph) to raise it to the AU level. A very satisfying XXXX.
