grains. The obverse crack is weak but complete from stars 3 through
7. Among the proof-only half cent issues, the 1841 Original is the
best choice for type collectors, with nearly 70 examples known
today. Like the 1840 Original half cent, this piece is interesting
as it has traces of a flattened reeded edge. Splashes of steel
toning appear on the chocolate-brown surfaces of this piece that
has an area of deeper toning within the wreath. Census: 3 in 63
Brown, 10 finer. CAC: 3 in 63, 3 finer (7/21). Our EAC grade
