Description
1795 Liberty Cap Half Cent. C-6a. Rarity-2. Plain Edge, No Pole. Thin Planchet--Double Struck, Second Strike 5% Off Center--VF-25 (PCGS).
Unwavering steel-brown tones drench the wholesome, somewhat glossy surfaces of this handsome Liberty Cap half cent. The devices are pleasingly bold and without remarkable softness on either side. An interesting Double Strike is seen on each side, the second one is 5% off center, this contributing to the intriguing character of this pleasing early copper.
PCGS# 1018. NGC ID: 2225.
From the Abernathy Collection. Earlier ex Anthony Terranova, May 9, 1986; Davy Collection; Ira & Larry Goldberg's sale of the Davy Collection of Half Cent Errors, September 2010 Pre-Long Beach Coin Auction, lot 39; Heritage's Long Beach Signature Auction of February 2017, lot 3024.
