UNITED STATES: ½ cent, 1833, PCGS graded MS64 BN, Classic Head type, in OGH PCGS "rattler" GEN-1.2 holder. All 1833 half cents were coined from a single pair of dies and are common both worn and in Mint State. The latter come mostly from a hoard of several thousand pieces brought to the market by the Guttag Bros. coin dealership in New York City. The discovery of old coins within bank vaults was a common occurrence during President Roosevelt 's Bank Holiday of 1933 in which federal auditors made thorough inspections of each bank 's assets and liabilities. 1833 half cents typically are quite sharply struck and make excellent type coins for the collector.

Estimate: 500-600 USD
