Description

Flowing Hair Half Dollar
1795 Flowing Hair Half Dollar. O-102, T-26. Rarity-4. Two Leaves. Good-6 (NGC).
The Overton-102 variety of the 1795 Flowing Hair half dollar is readily attributable by the reverse die, which is the only one with the berries arranged on the wreath nine left, eight right with two berries inside and one outside the wreath below the eagle's right wing. This reverse die is unknown in any other pairing. Among the more available die marriages of the date in an absolute sense, this mid grade example would do equally well in a circulated type set or specialized variety collection. Tompkins Die Stage 2/1.
PCGS# 6052. NGC ID: 24E7.
Estimate: $800
