Half Cents
1793 1/2 C C-1, B-1, High R.3, XF40 PCGS. Manley Die State 2.0, an intermediate state of the dies. The Cohen-1, Breen-1 1793 half cent is the first in the emission sequence, and therefore, this variety is the first half cent coined by the United States government during the first year of operation at the Philadelphia Mint, following a limited production of pattern or prototype pieces the previous year. This piece has smooth olive-brown surfaces with planchet flaws on each side. The obverse has a line of lamination from the nose to the border, and the reverse has a patch of lamination inside the lower right part of the wreath. Our EAC grade VF30.
