A cool overdate, the 1817/3 Capped Bust Half

[MikeKing]

This is a particularly lovely coin that I just 'upgraded' to. I tried to capture it's flash, but the photography is too difficult for me. I can give you some idea with the tilted photo at the end. Nice cartwheel luster in the protected areas and a coating of golden brown irridescence that turns to steel blue at the peripheries in a very natural way.

1817/3 is my favorite overdate in the Capped Bust Half Dollar series. This coin is very nicely toned, and conservatively graded by PCGS. You did well to snag it. (thumbs u
