Lot Description

1829 Classic Head Half Cent. C-1, the only known dies. Rarity-1. MS-64 BN (PCGS). Frosty and highly appealing, this otherwise antique copper-brown example exhibits subtle powder blue highlights as the coin rotates under a light. A sharply struck, smooth and tight near-Gem that would do equally well in a high grade type or variety set. PCGS# 1153. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
