Lot 373
1794 C-9 R2 Liberty Cap facing right EF40. Choice glossy chocolate brown and steel with smooth, very attractive surfaces. A beautiful 1794 half cent; essentially flawless. The only marks are a pair of tiny ticks high on the cheek just right of the ear, and they are not at all distracting. What may appear to be dull rim nicks on the reverse are subtle bumps from the strongly impressed edge letters. M-LDS, Manley state 3.0. The dull die crack from the rim into the cap is strong and clear die clashmarks are visible on the obverse. A great type or date coin. Weight 105.7 grains.
Estimated Value $5,000-UP.
Ex Delaware Valley Rare Coins (Coin World ad) 3/2006-Ray Rouse, McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Goldbergs 9/14/2008:20 (lot ticket included) Ex Walter Scheer Collection.
