1792 Half Disme. Silver
|
EF |
$75,000.00
|
Extremely Fine. A very pleasing example of the first Half Disme struck by the government of the United States. Both sides are a medium silver gray in color, the fields slightly deeper in shade than the central devices and legends.

1795 Logan-McCloskey-8 (R-3). Second Curl to Star Crotch
|
CH AU |
$6,250.00

Choice About Uncirculated and close to full Mint State. An early die state shows the obverse crack extending only to the bridge of Liberty's nose and across the cheek bone. Handsome frosty silver shows virtually no circulation. This die incorporated a heavy center dot set in the eagle's right wing. NGC AU58. |

A bright silver specimen with the die crack running from the rim through the right side of the 'Y' to the nose, and on across Liberty's face to the '7' in the date.

$2,100.00

A third. Very Fine. A lavender-gray coin with pale blue highlights. This is an earlier die state with the obverse die crack progressing only from the rim through the 'Y' and ending at Liberty's nose. The reverse is that with no berries below the left wing. This example displays a crisp strike and is well centered. A wholesome original coin with no signs of mishandling. |
