Proof Braided Hair Half Cents
1857 1/2 C PR63 Brown PCGS. B-2, R.4. Although the full strike and reflective fields confirm status as a proof, doubling on HALF CENT is also diagnostic for the Breen variety. A pleasing Select specimen with blended golden-brown and olive-green toning. Minor laminations, as made, are noted near star 13 and on the bust truncation above the 8 in the date.
