Description
1849, Small Date Half Cent, PR45
B-1, Original
1849 1/2 C Small Date, Original PR45 NGC. B-1, R.6. Large
Berries. The production of half cents for circulation resumed in
1849, after a 14-year hiatus. But those pieces bore Large Dates.
The 1849 Small Date is a proof-only issue that comes in two
varieties: Originals, with large berries within the wreath, and
First Restrikes, with small berries in the wreath. Although struck
as a proof, the present medium brown Original example eventually
briefly entered commerce, where it received light wear along with a
few thin obverse handling marks. NGC has certified only four
Original proofs of this date (7/19). Our EAC grade PR40.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 5-6/2007), lot 74.
