- Frosty Near-Gem 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dime
1795 Flowing Hair Half Dime. LM-8. Rarity-3. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC. OGH.
Handsomely toned in a blend of golden-gray and medium rose, this lustrous, smooth and satiny piece is knocking on the door of a full Gem grade. The strike is expertly centered on both sides with all major design elements boldly outlined and fully appreciable. This is a prized type coin in all grades, with few seen in full Mint State. It offers strong visual appeal, incredible surface quality and glorious toning.
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. Few are known today that can compare favorably with this stellar coin. Make sure to enjoy its features before the auction, as you will want to raise your bid accordingly, in order to secure it when the hammer falls.
