Description

1806 C-1, B-3 Half Cent, MS65+ Brown
From the Pogue Collection

1806 1/2 C Small 6, No Stems, C-1, B-3, R.1, MS65+ Brown PCGS. CAC. Breen Die State IV. The only Manley die state. Prominent clash marks are visible around the central obverse device, as always on this variety. A faint crack extends through the tops of LIBERTY, although flowlines from the late die state almost obliterate that crack. This lovely Gem is boldly defined with a lustrous tan obverse, and tan and steel reverse. This is the second finest 1806 half cent that PCGS has certified behind an MS66+ Red and Brown. In fact, only eight Draped Bust half cents (for all years from 1800 to 1808) have earned a finer grade than this representative (6/18). Our EAC grade MS63.
