- 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dime. LM-8. Rarity-3. AU-50 (NGC).
The pleasing dove grey surfaces of this satisfying piece are accented by traces of gold and sapphire iridescence at the borders. A heavy thatching of adjustment marks adorns the central devices, though the overall definition remains bold throughout. The diagnostic crack from the Y of LIBERTY across Liberty's face is well developed and clear, speaking to the sharp strike and favorable preservation.
The Flowing Hair type was issued for a very short period, although some were dated 1794, these were released in early 1795. By the end of 1795, new designs were being prepared of the Draped Bust, Small Eagle type, thus the Flowing Hair design came to a sudden halt after its very brief existence. Logan-McCloskey 8 is one of the more readily obtainable die marriages of this issue, making it an ideal candidate for inclusion in a type set. It represents the first of two uses for this obverse die and the third and final use of this reverse die.
PCGS# 4251. NGC ID: 22ZV.
