Owner Comments:

A very nice circulated example with numerous circulation marks and original skin. Details are better than 40, but the marks bring it down a bit, which to me makes the coin more attractive. A scarcer variety being an R3, and my 4th Overton die pairing for 1808.

James Madison wins the presidential election of 1808 over Charles Coatsworth Pinkney. The US Slave Trade with Africa ends. The second and final year of the first design of the Capped Bust Half Dollar.
