Lot Description

1826 Classic Head Half Cent. C-1. Rarity-1. MS-64 BN (NGC). CAC. Thoroughly choice surfaces with some good gloss to the obverse, the reverse predominantly satiny in texture. Both sides are smooth and tight, the latter with original mint color faded down to warm autumn-brown. An arc of similar color adorns the lower right obverse, the balance of that side with rich antique copper-brown toning. With a bold to sharp strike and impressively smooth appearance, there is much to recommend this Classic Head half cent for inclusion in a high quality Mint State type set. Manley Die State 4.0. PCGS# 1144. NGC ID: 222U. Click here for certification details from NGC.
