Description
1842 First Restrike Half Cent
B-2, PR66 Brown
1842 1/2 C First Restrike PR66 Brown PCGS. CAC. B-2, R.6.
PCGS has certified three of these in PR66 Brown and two others in
PR66 Red and Brown, and those five submissions represent the finest
that grading service has certified, although the specific
identification of First or Second Restrikes is unknown. All three
varieties of 1842 are rated R.6, meaning less than 30 examples are
known of each. It is thought that only a little over half that
number of First Restrikes exist today. This piece has hints of red
on both sides, with delicate blue overtones on its olive-brown
surfaces. The design elements are sharp and the fields are
completely mirrored. Our EAC grade PR62.(Registry values: P4)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26Z8, PCGS# 1263, Greysheet# 597)
Weight: 5.44 grams
