1828 O-106 R4+, Curl Base Knob 2, Capped Bust Half Dollar

Obverse: 3
Reverse: F (Second Marriage)
Far fewer of this marriage still exist than the O-107, with perhaps a single MS65 and a single MS63 heading up the census. There are a few AU and XF examples that show up from time to time, and ususally command a premium over the O-107.
