Lot Description

Manley Die State 2.0. A visually pleasing example for the grade with generally dark brown patina that lightens to rose and golden-brown on the high points, providing somewhat of a circulated cameo appearance. The denomination HALF CENT is barely legible, a combination of die state and wear, but all other major design elements are discernible to bold. Finely granular overall with a few minor edge bruises, but nothing that we find worrisome in a Liberty Cap half cent that saw this extensive circulation.
