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... |
|
347 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $10,750.00 |
1795 (LM-10) NGC MS-60.
|
LM-10 in this die-state can be quickly identified by a nice rim break over "TY", and were that distinctive feature not present, then by how the final star touches the point of Liberty's bust. ... |
|
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... |
|
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... |
