Description

1855 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS65 Red PCGS. This lustrous copper-red 1855 half cent is virtually unsurpassable in grade, and its encasement in a green label holder heightens its appeal. The obverse portrait is sharply defined, and the reverse wreath mirrors this attribute save for the leaf cluster above the LF in HALF, which is incomplete. Sharpness is hit-and-miss on the peripheral stars, and the border dentils around each side are characteristically soft. A few scattered flecks are expected for the issue. Our EAC grade MS64.
Ex: New York Signature (Heritage, 10/2015), lot 3027.
