Description

1800 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, MS64 Red and Brown
The New Draped Bust Design

1800 Draped Bust, C-1, B-1, R.1, MS64 Red and Brown NGC. Our EAC grade MS63. 83.8 grains. Breen Die State IV. Manley Die State 4.0. Fuhrman Die State 4. Chief Engraver of the Mint Robert Scot prepared the first Draped Bust dies using his new design for silver dollars in 1795. Liberty's updated image appeared on the cents and all other silver coins in 1796. A modification of the design appeared for the first time on gold coins in 1795. Finally, it was the half cent's turn in 1800. Due to the difference in the reverse dies, William Eckberg, author of The Half Cent, 1793-1857, considers the 1800 and 1802/0 C-1 half cents a different design for type collectors.

Trivial handling marks are evident on both sides of this Choice Mint State first-year Draped Bust half cent. Splashes of pale blue and violet toning appear on the lustrous light brown surfaces that retain substantial mint red. Census: 1 in 64 Red and Brown, 0 finer (3/21). NGC has also certified one MS64 Red and one MS65 Brown.
Ex: Walter Breen Collection; Jon Hanson (1/27/1967); Donald G. Partrick.
