- 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dollar. O-121a, Taraszka-2. Rarity-6. Y/Star, Two Leaves. VF-30 (PCGS).
Pleasing silver gray surfaces exhibit warmer olive-gold and light russet highlights around the peripheries. Bold Choice VF detail throughout with wispy hairlines and a touch of glossiness to the texture noted for accuracy. A popular and eagerly sought die marriage among specialists, Overton-121 represents the only known use of this obverse with the letter Y in LIBERTY punched over an errant star. The late die state with a prominent obverse crack from the lower border into Liberty's portrait, offered here, is the most challenging to locate with an estimated ranking of Rarity-6 per Stephen J. Herrman (Spring 2019). Tompkins Die Stage 3/1.
Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
PCGS# 39257. NGC ID: 24E7.
