tolch123 Valued Member United States 116 Posts	Posted 11/05/2019 12:34 pm Does this 1830 Capped Bust half dollar have "Large Letters"? It's very strange. It almost looks like it's double struck. On the obverse, it looks like a doubled profile or a die clash. Any help?! *Edited by Susanlynn9 to change 1930 to 1830 in the title and the post.* Report this Post to the Staff

tolch123 Valued Member United States 116 Posts	Posted 11/05/2019 1:59 pm I'm a total novice at these early silver busts, so please excuse the question... As it's a Large Letters, isn't this quite an expensive high-end rarity? Also, it's definitely cleaned, correct? Report this Post to the Staff
AcesKings Pillar of the Community United States 1628 Posts	Posted 11/05/2019 4:41 pm This is NOT a large letter reverse. It's an O-113, the large letter reverse is an O-114. Compare yours to these..... O-113 http://maibockaddict.com/1830-o-113...dollar.shtml O-114 (Large Letters) http://maibockaddict.com/1830-o-114...dollar.shtml Report this Post to the Staff
