详细说明

1793 Cohen-1, Breen-1. Rarity-3+. GENUINE (PCGS). Sharpness of VF-35; but burnished long ago, signs of which are mostly evident on the obverse. Slight porosity remains in places, and a few old scratches are noted on the reverse, but these are not too serious. Now toned a largely natural looking medium copper brown and showing excellent detail. While certainly not perfect, most 1793 half cents are not and one must be a little forgiving with early coppers in general. Still, this piece has much to offer in terms of sharpness and would be a perfect candidate to represent this sought-after first year of issue.
