FS: 1796 Bust Half PCGS F-15

iras4

Rarely seen in this grade. I did see, last year, a Fine-12, but it looked like a VG-10 or worse to me, so I passed it by. This example has decent hair and feather detail for the grade. It's the rarerst US silver coin by design with under 1000 minted. This coin was not an auction buy but from a dealer's walk-up, a private collector.

I need $66500 for it. A prominent upstate NY dealer purchased a PCGS VF-20 at the show for $80,000 and is asking $90,000 last time I checked. A bit more hair detail, but reverse looked similar.
