Description
1836 Capped Bust Half Dime, Large 5C, AU58 PCGS, Popular Guide Book Variety. V-3, LM-6, R.3. A penultimate-year example of the Capped Bust design before the long-running Seated Liberty obverse design would be introduced in mid-1837. This is a sharp and attractive near-Mint State piece with light toning and good eye appeal. The Large 5C is a popular Guide Book variety, although they were produced from four different pairs of dies, of which the present V-3, LM-6 marriage is that most often seen.
