 1811 Br.2, C.2. (R-3). Close Date. Very Fine-25 and perhaps a bit better. This reverse is measurably off-center, wear is trouble-free and complements this pleasing coin's remarkable glossy deep chestnut brown patina. The 1811 is scarcely offered, and when examples do come to market, they are rarely as finely preserved and eye appealingly smooth as the current specimen. Half Cents of this year have always attracted collector attention as a result of their scarcity and the seemingly random arrangement of the date numerals.
