Description

1795 1/2 C Lettered Edge, Punctuated Date, C-2a, B-2a, R.3, XF40 PCGS. Breen Die State III, Manley Die State 3.0 with a heavy bulge through ER in AMERICA, and a clash mark from the base of the F in OF down to a leaf that Breen fails to mention. Housed in a green-label PCGS holder, this half cent has lovely steel-brown toning on its glossy obverse and semi-glossy reverse. Both sides show scattered marks that are expected for the grade, including a mark on the cheek that will aid in tracking its provenance. This is the final die variety struck at the old 104-grain standard. Our EAC grade VF30.
From The Red Headed Copper Collection.
