And I believe it's been cleaned.

I can't help with the O-110 designation.
I know it's an Overton number that identifies the variety.
You need to find a half dollar Capped Bust reference book or online site.

This is a useful site for bust half attribution: https://maibockaddict.com/capped-bust-half-dollars

It also has many beautiful pictures of many bust halves in a range of grades. If may inform as to why the poster above indicated the coin you showed us may have been cleaned. The person who created the site shows what really high eye appeal coins should look like.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Apparently I need to stop impulse bidding on coins this is the 3rd detailed capped bust that I didn't see the word details on. But either way I like them all.

VF details

if possible I suggest posting photos here prior to pulling a trigger until you gain enough knowledge to determine a details coin.

The Overton 110 variety designation is correct. This coin exhibits a weak strike, a very late die state, and a cleaning. The "rim dings" above the words STATES and AMERICA are caused by the edge lettering. There is corrosion or something alike that continues around Miss Liberty's eye, back to the hairline, and up to the corner of the cap.

I give this coin a VF-25 details, cleaned and possible corrosion.
Suffering from bust half fever.
