Description

Wonderful 1795 O-117 Half Dollar, VF20

1795 50C 2 Leaves VF20 PCGS. Ex: Meyer. O-117, R.4. An early die state with no evidence of obverse die cracks. The obverse die has a raised die defect at the right side of the Y, sometimes described as a Recut Y. However, close examination suggests some other cause, as the underlying defect is clearly something other than recutting of that letter. This wonderful example has fully original deep gray patina with hints of gold toning. The Overton reference states that the field is unfinished below the chin, but the defects in that area appear to be clash marks.(Registry values: N2998)
