I have had the good fortune to be in a position to build on my existing early specimen coin collection recently, and I know you folks will appreciate them. As an aside, if any of you know my wife, don't tell her .

I've seen some of bosox's collection on here. His specimens are at a whole other level.

They're all excellent but that 1908 $0.50 is stunning.
Is there a pedigree to it?

Cheers, Bill

Hi Bill,

There's no provenance mentioned on the grading certificate, nor was there anything mentioned by the previous owner. It is a spectacular piece, probably my favorite of the bunch.
