- 1795 Grate Halfpenny. Musante GW-49, Baker-29B, W-10955. Large Buttons. Copper. Reeded Edge. MS-63 BN (NGC). The reeded edge slopes down to the right. A second Mint State example of this popular Washington type, both sides are satiny to modestly semi-reflective in finish with pleasing gloss to the surfaces. Richly toned in blended antique copper and autumn-brown, direct lighting calls forth subtle pale lilac and pinkish-rose highlights. Sharply struck and very appealing. PCGS# 746. NGC ID: 2B7M.
