- 1828 Classic Head Half Cent. C-3. Rarity-1. 13 Stars. MS-64 RB (PCGS). CAC. OGH--First Generation. Far more Red than Brown, this premium quality example exhibits minimal iridescent toning to dominant rose-red color. Well struck overall, most central design elements are sharply to fully rendered. Solidly in the Choice category, and not all that far from Gem Mint State, this is a beautiful high grade type candidate from the Classic Head half cent series. Most partially to fully red 1828 half cents trace their history to a hoard dispersed by Washington, D.C. collector and dealer Benjamin Collins, who flourished in the last decade of the 19th century and the first decade of the 20th. All examples in that hoard were from the C-3 die pairing, as here. PCGS# 1148.
