Variety collectors make a nice find with this 1828 Capped Bust silver half dollar. The toughest of the five varieties of this date, this coin is a Square Base 2, Small 8s, Small Letters example. PCGS cites the Estimated Survival Rate for this variety in all grades at 300 pieces, with a Numismatic Rarity of R-6.4, a Relative Rarity by Series of 6/78 TIE, and a Relative Rarity by Type of 5/72 TIE. A fairly well-preserved example, this attractive coin shows pleasing detail definition, and moderate wear on the high points, making it worthy of a Choice VF-30 rating.

Opening Bid $100.
