Description
1847 B-3 Half Cent, PR66 Brown
Second Restrike
1847 1/2 C Second Restrike PR66 Brown PCGS. CAC. B-3, High
R.5. Approximately two dozen of the B-1 Original 1847 half
cents survive, the large berries in the wreath diagnostic. The B-2
First Restrike half cents have small berries in the wreath and a
doubled T in CENT, and for 1847 only two or three survive. The B-3
Second Restrike half cents, with small berries in the wreath and
short die file lines over RIC in AMERICA, are the most plentiful
proof half cents of the date, with nearly three dozen known in
various grades. Much underlying cherry-red remains with a lovely
autumn leaves overlay on each side. Nicely reflective surfaces show
no obvious spots on either side. MRB PR63.(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 26ZH, PCGS# 1293, Greysheet# 627)
