$3450 		New January 19! Near-Gem Original, Newtown Collection.. The 1843 issue is well known among Seated half dollar enthusiasts for its multiplicity of reverse die crack combinations. This W-36 example reveals a striking, completely bisected reverse with a near-vertical die crack. Thick crust covers the obverse, while the reverse is lighter. The eagle’s left leg is softly impressed. CAC has approved 73 pieces total, five coins in MS64, and three examples finer. The CAC price guide value is $3,450, an attractive value for a condition census piece with visually compelling die characteristics. Ex.
