Strong detail with nice medium brown color and choice problem-free surfaces. A tough coin to find with premium quality color and surfaces!

Sharply struck with no adjustment marks and bright lustrous surfaces. The obverse is satiny and lightly frosted while the reverse has reflective semi proof-like surfaces. 44,344 minted with an estimated 650 to 850 known.

Overton 101. Attractive silver-gray surfaces, well detailed, and devoid of significant marks. A desirable example of this scarce date which saw a mintage of just 29,880.

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. […]

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.

Spiked Chin. Cohen-8. The last marriage of the Spiked Chin obverse following Cohen-5, 6, and 7. This is a late die state of this durable die. A ‘Spike’ extends from Liberty’s chin, a ‘tongue’ appears to stick out between her lips, and curved die lines are seen in the field opposite her neck. This is […]

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.
