Description
1848 B-2 Half Cent, PR65 Red and Brown
Popular First Restrike Variety
1848 First Restrike, B-2, High R.5, PR65 Red and Brown NGC.
CAC. Our EAC grade PR62. 83.7 grains. Among First
Restrike half cents, the 1848 is encountered more often than most
other issues, an important consideration for type collectors who
might like to acquire a single example with this reverse. More than
two dozen were discussed in the Breen-Hanson Condition Census while
Richard T. Coleman, Jr. lists just over 40 entries. This piece from
the Norweb Collection was identified in that catalog as Breen's
Series I. This is a sensational example with mostly brilliant mint
red surfaces and light brown toning on both sides. Liberty's
portrait is especially bright and contrasts nicely with the fields.
Census: 1 in PR65 Red and Brown, 2 finer for both restrike
varieties (3/21).Ex: Thomas L. Elder (10/17/1908); Albert Holden; Emery May Norweb; Norweb Family Collection (Bowers and Merena, 11/1987), lot 119; Jon Hanson; Donald G. Partrick.(Registry values: P3)
