CAC. Reverse of 1802. All 1802 half cents are overdates with the O clearly seen below the 2 of the date. They are also very scarce and truly rare when found in decent grades and problem-free. The vast majority of known coins are rough to say the least. They are also unknown in mint state. […]

A lovely example of this very clear overdate. The underlying 1 sits boldly beneath the primary 2 in the date. The surfaces are choice and original. They’re a pleasing light coin-gray with some darker gray toning at the bottom of the obverse. The design features are bold and minimal marks are insignificant and well hidden.

Large 3. Solid detail with surfaces that blend light silver-gray shades. Traces of mint luster remain on both obverse and reverse.

Small Stars Reverse. A better date with a mintage of 15,017 which includes both the large and small star variants. This is a nice original example with strong detail and minimally abraded surfaces.

Small Date, Large Fraction. S-258. Well detailed with choice surfaces that are problem-free and retain a fair amount of mint luster. The obverse is a light reddish-brown while the reverse is medium brown. An arcing die crack at the lower left of the obverse field is diagnostic of the variety.

Small Date, Large Fraction. Solid detail for the grade with choice medium brown surfaces.

C-5. Spiked Chin. R-4. The rarest of the 4 different Spiked Chin varieties. Well detailed and attractive with the dramatic spike coming off Liberty’s chin, plus the reverse has a heavy bisecting die crack with additional peripheral die cracks.

Spiked Chin. Glossy brown surfaces with a fair amount of remnant faded red.

Spiked Chin. Well detailed with very attractive color and surfaces. Late die state with rim cud over AMERICA, 1/200, and UN of UNITED.
