Description
1859 Half Dime, MS67
The Eliasberg Coin
1859 H10C MS67 PCGS. CAC. V-2. Ex: Eliasberg. Gold,
evergreen, and coffee shades weave through the stars and date of
this Superb Gem. The reverse exhibits azure throughout, and the CAC
approval attests to the visual appeal of this lustrous,
near-Condition Census example.Variety: V-2. The date is low within the field, and the pendant is aligned with the right side of the 5.
Population Data (8/15): PCGS reports 28 submitted in MS67 and five finer, all MS68. NGC accounts for 18 in MS67 and four in MS68 finer. This is one of 14 in MS67 with the CAC green bean.
Heritage Commentary: The Mint used a new obverse hub for half dimes in 1859, designed by Mint assistant engraver Anthony Paquet, showing slight differences including hollow star centers, thinner arms, and a flatter base that extends just beyond the foot to the right.
Provenance: Eliasberg Collection (Bowers & Merena, 5/1996), lot 1006; purchased from Joseph O'Connor (12/2003).(Registry values: N2998)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 233W, PCGS# 4371, Greysheet# 3786)
