What is the value of an 1824 US half dollar?

Answer 1

Two varieties of half dollar were struck in 1824. The first has a normal date while the second has a "recut" date that happened when an engraver reused an old die from 1821 and simply cut a 4 over the 1.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 03/2010:

Normal date:

Very worn condition - $61

Moderately worn - $84

Slightly worn - $110

Almost no wear - $469

Uncirculated - $1,140 to $43,230 depending on quality

Date 1824 over 21:

Very worn condition - $75

Moderately worn - $127

Slightly worn - $168

Almost no wear - $799

Uncirculated - $1,710 to $21,250
it schould be around 800 dollars
