A highly desirable early half dollar, distinguished as an Overton Plate Coin, making it of particular interest to advanced specialists in the series. The obverse shows Liberty with well-defined hair curls, pleasing facial detail, and even wear that is consistent with the assigned grade. The date and LIBERTY are bold. The reverse eagle retains strong definition in the wings, shield lines, and motto, with even circulation wear and excellent balance across the devices. The surfaces are original and free of distracting marks, exhibiting a light silver-gray patina that deepens subtly at the peripheries, lending an attractive and fully original appearance.
