Early Half Dimes
1800 H10C V-1, LM-1, R.3, AU58 NGC. The late die state rim cud below the date has not yet developed on this near-Mint 1800 half dime. However, just to the left of the future cud location and still beneath the date is a small, jagged planchet clip that appears mint-made. The remainder of the rims are well-defined, and the interior devices show sharp definition. Golden, lavender, and pale blue toning appear in the fields amid remnants of delicate original luster. The eye appeal of this piece is magnificent for the collector who appreciates original, old-time coloration. Census (for the variety): 3 in 58, 1 finer (7/17).
