Wonderful 1795 Half Dollar, O-105, VF25

1795 50C 2 Leaves VF25 NGC. O-105, R.4. Two points of star 1 are attached to the lowest hair curl, and one point of star 2 covers the end of the second strand of hair. Overton-105a features a die crack from the edge, through the B in LIBERTY, that ends at the hair. The present example shows the beginning of that die crack, but it stops before the top line of the B. Another die crack goes between the I and T in UNITED, and a faint crack appears next to star 15. Both sides exhibit an antique silver appearance, with the fields slightly darker gray than the design. A shallow scratch to the right of the bust affects none of the devices. Overall, an attractive, well struck early half.
