Description
Pleasing 1797 Plain Edge Half Cent
VF30 Details, C-1, B-1
1797 1/2 C 1 Above 1--Corroded, Cleaned--ANACS. VF30
Details. C-1, B-1, R.2. This variety shows a thin 1 above the 1
in the date, dot-like defects above both 7's, and five berries on
the left branch and three on the right. The later die state
features a bulge left of the L in LIBERTY, a die crack from the
right side of B into the hair, another from the nose to 4 o'clock,
and one from the latter crack to the lower throat. Olive-brown
surfaces exhibit sharply defined design features, and reveal minor,
insignificant roughness in the right obverse field and in some of
the interstices of the wreath. This is a rather pleasing coin,
devoid of mentionable abrasions or hairlines. The ANACS disclaimer
should not dissuade prospective bidders. EAC 15.From The John Stimson, Sr. Collection, Part Two.(Registry values: P6)
