Description
1793 Half Cent, VF30
C-1, First Half Cent Marriage
1793 1/2 C C-1, B-1, High R.3, VF30 PCGS. Cohen-1 is the
first half cent variety struck and is also the scarcest variety of
the year. A branch stem touches the U in UNITED, diagnostic for
Cohen-1. This example provides medium lilac toning and lacks the
granularity seen on most early half cents, although a pair of
inconsequential spots are found near the obverse rim at 2 o'clock.
HALF CENT is mostly worn, but all remaining legends are bold except
for the final A in AMERICA. Each side has one or two faint thin
marks unworthy of further comment. An important single-year type
coin, since the bust faces right beginning in 1794. Our EAC grade
Fine 12.Ex: Gobrecht's Raisinet Collection (Heritage, 1/2008), lot 2653.
