Description
Pleasing 1796 Half Dime, MS62
V-1, LM-1, 'LIKERTY'
1796 H10C MS62 NGC. V-1, LM-1, R.3. The so-called "LIKERTY"
variation, named for the die polishing that weakened the upper and
lower flats of the B in LIBERTY. The V-1 is significantly more
available than its very rare overdated V-2 counterpart, though the
V-1 is still scarce in an absolute sense. The present
representative offers strong luster and pleasing detail on the
obverse curls. Sage, green-gold, and slate shadings mingle on each
side. A handful of wispy abrasions have only minimal impact on the
eye appeal. For the variety, Census: 7 in 62, 11 finer (3/09).From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: P7)
