1800 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, MS62 Red and Brown
Important Type Issue

1800 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS62 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. Manley Die State 3.0 exhibiting a diagonal die scratch from the top of F in HALF. The 1800 half cents, all from a single die pair, are important to a range of collectors, including variety specialists, date collectors, and type collectors. This is the first year of issue for the Draped Bust design and survives in high grades due to hoards discovered in 1910 and in the middle 1930s. This impressive half cent, housed in an early PCGS holder, exhibits olive and bluish-brown surfaces with substantial remaining mint red, especially on the reverse.
