1/2 Cent    (sold for $3600.0)

1797 C-1 R2 1 Above 1 Variety F15. Struck over a 1795 Talbot Allum & Lee Cent. Glossy chocolate brown. No roughness or verdigris and only a few trivial contact marks mixed in with lots of strong undertype from the 1795 TAL Cent. The aft of the ship shows clearly before the face of Ms Liberty and much of the compact legend of the reverse of the 1795 version is clearly visible under the date. The 1795 date is visible at TES in STATES, although the 5 is weak. While half cents struck on planchets cut from 1794 TAL Cents are relatively common, ones from the 1795 version are extremely rare. And this example displays lots of the distinctive 1795 reverse undertype in addition to the date, so the attribution is unquestioned. M-LDS, Manley state 4.0 late with die failure that severely weakens RICA. Weight 95.4 grains. Davy #97.1.7. Estimated Value $1,000-UP. Ex Samuel Ungar-R. K. Ivey 3/12/82. Categories:
