Description

Rare 1795 Half Dollar, 2 Leaves
O-103a, VF30

1795 50C 2 Leaves VF30 PCGS. O-103a, R.5. On the obverse, the lowest hair curl is equidistant from stars 1 and 2. The reverse has a 10-7 berry pattern and now has a prominent cud above the AM in AMERICA. Normally this die defect would cause stars 10 through 13 to be nearly absent, but these stars are remarkably sharp on the present coin. Only a small number of the dentils have not been struck. Deep chestnut and blue-gray toning covers both sides of this interesting specimen. Faint lines are noted on Liberty's cheek and below the eagle, some of which appear to be adjustment marks. We leave it to the viewer to decide.(Registry values: N2998)
