Description
1842 First Restrike Half Cent
B-2, PR66 Brown
1842 1/2 C Restrike PR66 Brown PCGS. CAC. B-2, R.6. PCGS has
certified three examples PR66 Brown and two others in PR66 Red and
Brown. 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.
