Description
1855 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, MS65+ Red
Condition Census Quality
1855 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS65+ Red PCGS. CAC. Struck in the
final years of the half cent denomination, the 1855 has a low
mintage (only 56,500 pieces), but remains collectible in nice Mint
State. Rare, though, are MS65+ Red examples, with only eight such
pieces graded at PCGS (11/22). PCGS has graded only a single coin
finer as Red. The present coin is as Red as any half cent this
cataloger has seen, with only a small field fleck in front of the
nose to deny an even finer numerical assessment. The strike shows
minor blending on the right-side stars and dentils. CAC: 9 in 65, 0
finer (11/22).Ex: Regency Auction 28 (Legend, 5/2018), lot 302.
