1835 C-1 Half Cent, MS65 Red
Just Seven at PCGS, None Finer

1835 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS65 Red PCGS. CAC. Fuhrman Die State 1. An outstanding Classic Head type coin that boasts a bold strike and unabraded fields. Two tiny ticks on the cheekbone aid in identification. A few small flecks are scattered, and the left reverse displays hints of lilac shading. The overall quality is extraordinary. The present C-1 can be distinguished from the C-2 by the farther apart ST in STATES. The 1835 was saved in Mint State but few remain full Red without distracting spots. PCGS has awarded the MS65 Red grade seven times, with none finer (11/25). CAC: 3 in 65, 0 finer (11/25).
