1793 Half Cent, AU Sharpness
C-2, Single Year Type

1793 1/2 C C-2, B-2, R.3 -- Environmental Damage -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. The 1793 half cent is a single year type, and is also the first year that coinage was produced for the public at the fledgling First Philadelphia Mint. Most 1793 half cents show substantial wear, but the present example is sharp. The obverse displays light lavender and sea-green toning, while the reverse is light brown with glimmers of brick-red from design crevices. Marks are few and unimportant. Although designated by PCGS as having environmental damage, this coin has generally pleasing surfaces and should please the early American collector. Our EAC grade VF30.
