Description
1797 15 Stars Half Dime, VF30
Mid-Grade Example of the V-2, LM-1 Variety
1797 H10C 15 Stars, V-2, LM-1, R.3, VF30 NGC. LM-1 is the
only die pairing with the 15-Stars obverse, and it is always found
with the reverse featuring an outer berry between NI of UNITED.
Typical weakness of strike combined with wear have limited some of
Liberty's hair detail, but the lower tresses are well-defined.
Attractive, old-silver toning with charcoal-gray at the margins
attest to the coin's original appeal. Details on the small-eagle
reverse are soft in the centers as often seen, but the strike is
strong at the margins. This is an attractive, early half dime
without any post-mint problems typical of those found on many
mid-grade examples of this date.Ex: ANA National Money Show Signature (Heritage, 2-3/2014), lot 3786; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2014), lot 3080.
