Lot 526
1801 LM-2, Rarity 4. PCGS graded AU-58. A frosty white coin that offers strong luster and mint frost, rather unheard of for an early Draped bust half dime. Most of these that did survive show far more wear and offer little or no luster. The 1801 half dimes are a tiny mintage compared with those of 1800, and precious few offer the glorious quality found here. While the top of Liberty's head is softly struck on the high points, most of her curls show good separation from her ear and below. Scattered light marks are found when closely examined, as one expects for even brief circulation. Only 27,760 minted. Pop 5; 7 finer at PCGS. (PCGS # 4267) Estimated Value $10,000 - UP
