Description
1793 C-3 Half Cent, Good 6
Affordable First Year of Issue
1793 1/2 C C-3, B-3, R.3, Good 6 PCGS. Chocolate-brown
surfaces contain hints of steel-blue and rose-copper. Slight
weakness exists in the central reverse. Dents at the cap and in
front of the eye have been part of the coin's patina for a
significant portion of its life. The C-3's reverse was previously
used for C-2, and the obverse went on to strike C-4, the final of
the four equally-scarce die marriages of this inaugural year of
America's smallest coin denomination.From The Bob Hastings Collection.
