<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3914843, member: 66"]For people familiar with the series the design difference in the obv is obvious. To those less familiar it can be subtle enough to not be noticed. The real difference is on the reverse. The capped bust lettered edge coins have the denomination expressed as 50 C, the 1836 and 37 reeded edge capped bust halves have it expressed as 50 CENTS, and the 1838 and 39 reeded edge capped bust halves have it expressed as HALF DOL.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
