1855 Braided Hair Half Cent, MS66 Red and Brown
C-1, B-1, None Finer at PCGS

1855 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS66 Red and Brown PCGS Gold Shield. Strong mint luster glows from large expanses of mint red color, overlaid with steel-blue accents to easily achieve the Red and Brown designation. A sharp strike exists throughout the central devices, while the borders show areas of minor weakness at the dentils. The eye appeal is excellent. This Premium Gem example is the sole-finest 1855 certified by PCGS in Red and Brown. All other MS66 pieces are in Brown format, with none finer (1/19). Our EAC grade MS63.
