406 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $475.00 |
1795 Fine details/damaged.
|
Courteous Collection of Early Type. Sadly, the surface shows odd corroded texture in the right-hand part of the date, precluding visibility of the digits and thereby inducing a very low net grade. ... |

529 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $4,800.00 |
1795 (LM-9, R.4) PCGS XF-45.
|
LM-9 should serve very well for type purposes since it is not a rare die-marriage, and the PCGS XF-45 grade identifies this as a high, but not TOO high grade example. Putting the power of... |

421 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012 | $2,800.00 |
1795 (LM-10 LDS, R.3) NGC VF-25.
|
LM-10 is readily attributed by the way the first and last stars are connected to Liberty's portrait, with this die-state showing an easily recognized cud above "TY". While VF-25 accurately reflects... |
|
552 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $1,950.00 |
1795 (LM-8, R.3) NGC VF-20.
|
Sharpness seems to be technically a bit better than the VF-20 assigned by NGC, but Liberty's portrait displays a healthy dose of adjustment marks. The reverse displays only a single circulation... |
|
242 | The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009 | $300.00 |
1795 (LM-10, R-3) Fair-2/damaged.
|
As "original" as a damaged coin can be, surfaces are the most perfect dark grey color possible for vintage silver. LM-10 is the only die-marriage for which S1, S13 and the end digits of the date... |
|
243 | The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009 | $11,500.00 |
1795 NGC MS-62.
|
Three berries can be counted inside the stem under the eagle's left (observed) wing, and by happy circumstance, this coincides immediately with LM-1, the first listed die-marriage for 1795. ... |
|
579 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $475.00 |
1795 VG/old scratch.
|
An unattributed 1795 half-dime that is exceptionally original, but which suffers a lengthy obverse scratch. Destined for the collection of a budget conscious collector! |
|
389 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $1,950.00 |
1795 (LM-8, V-5, R-3), PCGS VG-10.
|
Central details are well outlined, though the rims are a little faded, particularly on the left and right sides of the obverse, and much of the reverse. It is possible that this coin was struck on a... |
|
390 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $1,250.00 |
1795 "LM-9, R.4" dime, XF, damaged rim.
|
Shaving of the right edge of this early half-dime likely represents a contemporary attempt to collect bits of silver off of multiple coins, a felonious procedure practiced by early malefactors who... |
|
390 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $2,400.00 |
1795 LM-1 R6 VF-30 Details, Burnished.
|
Few examples of this very rare die marriage would exceed the surprisingly attractive appearance of this lightly processed early half-dime. Apparently burnished to remove the effects of some planchet... |
|
391 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $4,600.00 |
1795 LM-8 AU-53 Details, Corroded, Cleaned.
|
Adjustment marks are visible along most the length of the front of Liberty’s portrait. Evenly micro-porous surfaces have been cleaned at one time, perhaps in an effort to smooth over the effects of... |
|
444 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007 | $1,650.00 |
1795 LM-3, V-2a, R-5. ANACS VF-30 Details, Corroded, Scratched,...
|
Even though this very scarce issue has several ascribed surface irregularities, it is still visually desirable. The recorded mintage for this two-year half dime design is combined for the years 1794... |
|
379 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007 | $1,000.00 |
1795 LM-10, V-4, R-3. NCS VG Details, Whizzed.
|
Although this specimen has been artificially altered, it still portrays a charming aspect. Its light silver centers are framed by a deeper hue that project a delightful antique quality. A few minor... |
|
380 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007 | $2,800.00 |
1795 V-5, LM-8, R-3. PCGS VF-30.
|
The first star on this variety is between Liberty's second and third hair curls, and there are no berries beneath the Eagle's left wing. It is an earlier die state with the diagnostic break seen... |
|
1101 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $2,200.00 |
1795 LM-9, V-6, R-4. XF-45.
|
A handsome example from this two-year type misnomer, since the Philadelphia Mint recorded no Half Dimes being coined until early 1795. Those bearing the date 1794 comprise the majority of the pieces... |
