Description
Nice 1796 With Pole Half Cent, XF Details, C-2
1796 1/2 C With Pole--Environmental Damage--NCS. XF40 Details. C-2, B-2, High R.4. Only 1,390 pieces were struck of the No Pole and With Pole subtypes combined, making them the rarest of the early U.S. half cents. The noted environmental damage is mostly fine-grained and microscopic, with all the major types clear save for LF and the N in CENT. The right wreath top is also a bit weak, and only about 30% of the dentilation is present. On the other hand, the smooth olive-brown surfaces show no singular abrasions. Overall a nice example, despite the NCS caveat, and one that should see spirited bidding. EAC 12. (Registry values: P9)Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 1027, Greysheet# 447)
Weight: 6.74 grams
