- 1794 Flowing Hair Half Dollar. O-101a, T-7. Rarity-3. VF-25 (NGC). CAC.
This is a simply outstanding example of the type and issue that really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Both sides are patinated in the fields with soft lilac-gray color, the high points are silver-gray. Expertly centered in strike with ample boldness of detail at the middle reaches of the numismatic grading scale. The surfaces are predominantly smooth and decidedly choice for the grade. A few light adjustment marks at the center of Liberty's portrait are as struck; a couple of ancient scratches are intermingled and could easily be confused as adjustment marks. These are mentioned solely for accuracy. The rarer of just two issues in the United States Mint's premier half dollar series, the 1794 is scarce and eagerly sought at all levels of preservation. This is a premium quality VF that is sure to garner much attention from discerning bidders.
Provenance: From Heritage's sale of the Rev. Dr. James G. K. McClure Collection, June 2016 Long Beach Signature Auction, lot 4490.
PCGS# 39201. NGC ID: 24E6.
