EDM Valued Member United States 288 Posts	Posted 01/19/2022 10:21 pm I have several Capped Bust half dollars including this 1833, and I've got questions. First, how would you grade this coin? Second, what's up with the "5" in "50 C"? And third, because of the size difference from later half dollars is there a 2x2 for them or do you use a dollar 2x2? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

EDM Valued Member United States 288 Posts	Posted 01/19/2022 10:43 pm Is the "5" a PMD or an error? Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4042 Posts	Posted 01/19/2022 11:58 pm Neither PMD nor an error. The 5 is as it was on the die, at least on this reverse die. There were other reverse dies used that did have a complete 5. I have this one at AU50/53 Overton 102 My Buffalo Complete Circ.

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 1538 Posts	Posted 01/20/2022 02:13 am AU-50. This coin has no major flat spots from wear, nor any distractive contact marks. But the obverse is too rubbed out for a 53. A very eye appealing and original specimen, and one I would gladly buy for my own collection at the right price. I use dollar sized 2x2's to contain my bust halves. I concur with Ty2020b that this is an O-102 with a rarity of R-1, Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17689 Posts	Posted 01/20/2022 11:06 am The 5 was most likely the result of a damaged punch used to make the 5 in the die. Gary Schmidt Report this Post to the Staff
psuman08 Pillar of the Community United States 592 Posts	Posted 01/23/2022 11:52 am Agree with those saying AU-50 Report this Post to the Staff
mikev50 Pillar of the Community United States 533 Posts	Posted 01/23/2022 12:53 pm here's one with a different 5 --- Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17689 Posts	Posted 01/24/2022 4:40 pm Yes the letters were individually punched into the die and in the case of the OP coin the 5 punch had part of the flag of the 5 broken off. Gary Schmidt Report this Post to the Staff
