Non-doctored, unlike many if not most 1842 half dimes in "problem free" PCGS holders. Exceptionally lustrous for MS63; rotate under an incandescent light for proof. And few and light marks. Sharply struck. 

In 1842, ether was first used as an anesthetic, the first gold in California was discovered, the Citadel and University of Notre Dame were established, unions and strikes were legalized, and the opium war between Great Britain and China ended. And this rare coin was born!
