No Pole. One of the legendary rarities in American Numismatics! Just 1,390 half cents were coined in 1796. Two obverse dies were used – one with a pole to the bust of Liberty and this type without the pole. Both are rare. An estimate 115 With Pole examples are known, but fewer than 30 No Pole coins are accounted for. All known examples have a distinctive bisecting die crack on the obverse. This is a very pleasing example with exceptional detail for a VG-10. The surfaces are a medium brown and, while not perfect, are superior to most know examples with just minor granularity.
