Description
1797 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, XF45
1 Above 1 Variety
1797 1/2 C Plain Edge, 1 Above 1, C-1, B-1, R.2, XF45 PCGS.
Manley Die State 3.0 with a vertical die crack through the B in
LIBERTY to the upper hairlines, and light die bulges on the
obverse. The most plentiful die variety among 1797 half cents, the
1 Above 1 variety is also popular with advanced collectors for its
numerous die states, and in many cases (but not this one), the
presence of undertype from Talbot, Allum & Lee tokens. The vast
majority of this variety was struck on those tokens that were
cut-down to half cent diameter. This attractive chocolate-brown
example has a few areas of blue-steel toning. Faint graffiti is
present above Liberty's head, but it is so light that PCGS wasn't
concerned, and neither are we.Ex: Richard Thomson, Jr. Collection (Early Cents Auctions, 6/2022), lot 149; Bruce Gimelson.
