Description
1855 C-1, B-1 Half Cent, PR64 Brown
Splendid Powder-Blue Toning
1855 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.5 as a Proof, PR64 Brown PCGS. All
1855 half cents, whether struck as proofs or for commerce, were
from Cohen-1 dies. Business strike examples are available, even in
nice Mint State condition, but proofs are scarce and are often
encountered with spots. The present near-Gem displays minimal
carbon, with one fleck evident below the D in UNITED. The
powder-blue and plum-red toning is splendid. A long narrow
strike-through extends from the E in UNITED to the first T in
STATES and is a prominent identifier for any future auction
appearances. Population: 10 in 64 (1 in 64+) Brown, 2 finer (8/23).Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 35417, Base PCGS# 1326)
Weight: 5.44 grams
Metal: 100% Copper
