Description
1834 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, MS65 Red
Important Early Die State
1834 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS65 Red PCGS. CAC. Breen Die
State I. Manley Die State 1.0. This piece is an early circulation
strike from the single known 1834 die pair. Breen noted that proofs
and the "earliest business strikes" were examples of this die
state, with only proofs known for his Die State II. That statement
implies that Breen Die State I examples are rare. However, Manley
describes the first die state as "Common." This lovely example,
housed in a green-label PCGS holder, has slight brown mellowing on
its rich orange mint surfaces with full cartwheel luster. This
example is the finest of just three 1834 half cents designated Red.
