Description
1800 LIBEKTY Half Dime, VF30
Attractive V-2, LM-3 Example
1800 H10C LIBEKTY, V-2, LM-3, R.4, VF30 NGC. Commonly called
the "LIBEKTY" variety, LM-3 is the more plentiful of two 1800 half
dime varieties that employ this obverse. The R in LIBERTY was
entered with a punch that had a broken top, giving the impression
of an oddly shaped letter K instead. This variety is essential for
a complete Guide Book set. Offered here is a well-struck
example with complete rims and natural lilac-gray and golden
patina. The usual die bulge on the reverse under the eagle's beak
affects the central sharpness of the obverse, but such is virtually
unavoidable on this issue. The die state is late, showing a heavy
die break to the left of the date that weakens the dentils in that
area.From The Wildwood Collection.
