Description

1794 1/2 C AU50 PCGS. Large Edge Letters. C-1a, B-1a, R.3. Manley Die State 2.0, clashed above the C in CENT. Golden-brown luster fills protected areas, while the cheek, wreath, and portions of the open fields have toned medium brown. Only one subtle spot is noted between the ES in STATES, and carbon is otherwise absent. The borders display a few minor marks, although only a tick below the O in OF can be seen with the unaided eye. Liberty Cap, Bust Right half cents were only coined for four years, with the 1796 known as a great rarity. Partly lustrous examples of this scarce type are coveted by early copper specialists. MRB XF40.
