1804 1/2C C-10, Crosslet 4, Stems, BN MS (PCGS#35158)

The March 2012 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1804 Draped Bust Half Cent. C-10. Rarity-1. Manley Die State 3.0. Crosslet 4, Stems. MS-63 BN (PCGS). CAC. Splendid light tan to golden from stem to stern, with glossy brown luster throughout. The surfaces are excellent with minimal signs of handling, and traces of mint color remain when closely examined. A mild toning speck  is noted in the field below Liberty's chin, another in the rim nearby, but these are minimally distracting. Well struck on Liberty's curls as well as the legends and wreath. As always seen there is a minor die crack from the top of the R in AMERICA to the rim above. Full leaf veins on the wreath, confirming the depth of the strike and high level of preservation. Indeed desirable and high appealing for any collector of this series.
