Lot Description

1854 Braided Hair Half Cent. C-1. Rarity-1. MS-65+ BN (NGC). Mottled gray-brown patina leaves plenty of original mint orange color in the protected areas around the design elements. Striking detail is sharp in virtually all areas, and the surfaces are blemish free apart from a blush of slightly deeper toning on the obverse after the date. An attractive Gem for the high grade type collector or half cent enthusiast. Manley Die State 2.0. NGC Census: 2; 14 finer in this category (MS-67 BN finest). PCGS# 35330. NGC ID: 26YY.
