An exceptional Gem Mint State 1807 Draped Bust half dollar from the final year of the design type will shine brightly this July in Baltimore when our Rarities Night event gets underway. This satiny pearlescent gray beauty features a strong strike for the type and excellent overall physical and aesthetic charm. This delightful Draped Bust half dollar is tied with one other example of the die combination for finest known honors – the other coin is the Eliasberg specimen! Overton-108, the variety to be offered in July, is a modestly scarce variety, Rarity-3 in fact, but in Gem Mint State it is about as rare as a Draped Bust half dollar of the date gets. The bidding activity for this beauty will be substantial, and it’s never too early to begin formulating your bidding strategy. Our Rarities Night sales venues offer some of the most exciting auction events in numismatics, and we hope to see you there in Baltimore in July when this world-class half dollar crosses the auction block.
