1793 PCGS VF-25. 1793 PCGS VF-25.
Lot Title: 1793 PCGS VF-25.
Description: The half cents dated 1793 have the designation of a one year type. This particular specimen is extremely well struck on its obverse, with the motif's features appearing to be minimally Extremely Fine. However, the central portion is slightly weak on the reverse. Its surfaces are enveloped in a copious chocolate brown hue and exhibit a slight microscopic granularity. Devoid of any obtrusive marks or blemishes, the acquisition of this handsome example will provide to its new owner a most desirable treasure within in the realm of American numismatics.

1793 (C-1) PCGS Genuine (About Good details/code 95).
Campania Estate. Dark patina occupies the majority of the obverse, relieved by walnut-brown accents on the devices. The reverse inverts this trend, with that side mostly brown aside from some darker...

1793 PCGS F-12.
C-3, considered the second most common of this quintessential one-year type date. Many collectors need an example or want a sharper upgrade, and this smooth specimen features expressive leather-brown...

1793 (C-2, R.3) PCGS Genuine/code 98 (as described).
Both sides are frightfully scored as it is, but the reverse has been damaged to the point of being severely defaced. It is almost as if someone intended to carve different details in place of the...

1793 (C-2, R.3) PCGS F-15.
Locks of hair are short and remain under the cap on the obverse, and the reverse has heavy ribbons, almost straight. Presumably an early die state since neither side displays evidence of die rust. ...
254The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$7,250.00
1793 (C-3, R.3) PCGS F-15.
Four die-marriages are known for 1793, the C-3 being considered "scarce" (R.3), but of course as a type coin, any 1793 holds a revered place in the hearts of collectors as the first half-cent...
104The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,500.00
1793 PCGS Fair-02 CAC.
Breen's "reverse B" is fairly definitive, judging by proximity of "T" in UNITED to the neighboring leaf, but the obverse is a bit more difficult to ascertain, considering the lack of LIBERTY and the...
180The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$4,400.00
1793 (C-2), PCGS Genuine.
A perfectly enjoyable 1793 half-cent that resides in a PCGS "genuine" holder, though no certified grade has been assigned. This coin benefits greatly from a reverse that bears bold inscriptions,...
226The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$2,800.00
1793 C-4, R-3. VF-30.
From the first year of issue for this denomination, it is generally considered to be a one year type issue. The mintage is commonly acknowledged as 35,334. With no die lump perceived at the top of...

1793 C-4, R-3 PCGS F-12.

224The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$2,100.00
1793 C-1 NCS VF Detail Corroded Surfaces.
This is a one year type that is very difficult to locate in any grade. It looks as though it spent some time in the ground, but the detail is still fairly strong. This coin also qualifies as a mint...
303The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$1,750.00
1793 ANACS GD-4.
This one year type issue of the first year for this denomination is ascribed as Cohen-1, Rarity-3+. Since only 35,334 Half Cents were produced in 1793, it is a highly desirable date. The planchet is...
