Fortunately I saw it again several months later and decided to bid stronger-I won for less than my original bid! This is also a date that is not common for color (by 1961 the US Mint was no longer using the the cardboard known to tone mint sets from most of the 1950s).</p><p><br /></p><p>Video: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMRZNCrUlW/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMRZNCrUlW/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMRZNCrUlW/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b><b>(4) <b>1834 NGC AU 55 Capped Bust Half Dollar</b></b></b></p><p><b><b><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/unnamed-jpg.1526468/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></b></b></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve owned several Capped Bust Halfs over the years and have always enjoyed them regardless of grade (I think these look nice from the low circulated grades all the way up to mint state).

I was fortunate to buy this one in an UNC details holder (QC, which I disagreed with) and then have it straight grade as AU 58.
