Description
1852 B-2 Half Cent, PR65+ Brown
First Restrike
1852 1/2 C Small Berries, Reverse of 1856, First Restrike, B-2,
R.4, PR65+ Brown PCGS. CAC. PCGS CoinFacts records a specific
mintage figure of 60 proofs for the 1852 half cents, while their
population report states that 60 or more are known today. The
Bowers-Whitman Guide Book suggests a population of 100 to 125 known
examples. Nevertheless, the present Gem ranks among the finer
survivors and it is nearly equal to the PR66 Brown example from the
James R. McGuigan collection that we sold in 2022. This sharply
detailed example has lovely sea-green and gold toning that
accompanies splashes of mint color on each side. Population: 11 in
65 (2 in 65+) Brown, 4 finer (11/23).Ex: Legend Rare Coin Auctions (7/2018), lot 2; Bruce Gimelson.
