1795 50C A over E MS (PCGS#39252)

November 2020 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dollar. O-113a, T-14. Rarity-4. Two Leaves, A/E in STATES. AU Details--Cleaned (PCGS). A near-fully lustrous, overall sharply defined example that borders on Mint State. Although not readily evident at all viewing angles, wispy hairlines are present to confirm the PCGS qualifier. Retoning nicely in peripheral champagne-pink iridescence, this is an exceptionally nice coin for the assigned grade that is worthy of a strong premium. A popular and readily attributable die marriage of the 1795-dated half dollar issue, Overton-113 is the only variety of the date with the letter A in STATES punched over an erroneous E. This is one of the more frequently encountered die pairings of the issue, which provides many collectors with the opportunity to own a pleasing example of the A/E variety, although we stress that coins which approach Mint State are rare from a condition standpoint. Tompkins Die Stage 5/2, representing a remarriage of these dies struck after the obverse coined after all known examples of O-114. Provenance: From the Naples Bay Collection. PCGS# 39252.
