Description Description: 1795 C-1 R2 Lettered Edge VF30+. End-of-Strip Planchet Clip. Ten points sharper with some light marks, none serious or visible without the aid of a strong glass, plus a patch of minor roughness over the tip of the pole that may have been present when the coin was struck. Lightly cleaned and retoned a very attractive and natural-looking glossy medium brown and chocolate with a swipe of darker chocolate toning at LIBE to the top of the cap. The eye appeal of this half cent is fantastic and consistent with a significantly higher grade. LDS, Manley state 2.0, showing a subtle bulge at AME. There is a relatively large ragged end-of-strip planchet clip at the top of the cap extending to the E in LIBERTY with a similar clip at UNI to the 2 in the denominator. A very impressive example of this type of mint error. Weight 105.5 grains. Davy #95.1.5. Estimated Value $2,000-UP. Ex Moreira sale, part 3, Superior 1/29/89:3041. Categories:
