Description
1854 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, MS66 Red and Brown
Only One Finer at MS66+
1854 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS66 Red and Brown NGC. The 55,358
half cents struck in 1854 used only one die pair, most of which
survived with Brown surfaces. This Premium Gem displays
satiny-smooth original red with subtle olive-brown accents on the
obverse. The strike is sharp with strong dentilation and full
radial lines on all stars. A tremendous cartwheel effect is
released, and eye appeal is exceptional. There are no numerically
finer pieces at NGC or PCGS, although PCGS reports one in MS66+
(10/25). Housed in a generation 4 fatty holder.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26YY, Variety PCGS# 35331, Base PCGS# 1231, Greysheet# 373917)
