Description
1797 C-2 Half Cent, AU50
Plain Edge, Centered Head
Conditionally Rare Variety
1797 1/2 C Plain Edge, Centered Head, C-2, B-2, R.3, AU50
PCGS. Cohen-2 is collectible in well-circulated grades, but Dr.
Manley notes that "specimens are very rare in grades above Very
Fine." This is a sharp chocolate-brown example with obverse blushes
of mahogany toning. The reverse displays lavender tints. Sharp for
the variety, and smooth aside from a thin radial line through the
first 7 in the date and a second line on the obverse dentils near 8
o'clock. Underappreciated in the present quality, and a desirable
addition to an advanced holding. Our EAC grade VF35.From The Gibney Family Collection.
