<B>1794 H10C MS63 PCGS.</B></I> V-4, LM-4, R.4. A leaf tip is under the left side of the U in UNITED, and one berry is under the I, promptly diagnosing the LM-4 die pairing. More classically stated, there are three inner berries under the left wing, and no outer berries under that wing. Although designated as R.4, Logan and McCloskey note in <I>Federal Half Dimes 1792-1837 </B></I>that this is the "most common of the four 1794 die marriages." Bold clash marks appear on each side. This piece offers breathtaking, original mint-green, aqua, and pinkish-gray patina. While the surfaces are suggestive of a finer grade, a well-hidden scrape appears between STATES and OF on the reverse, and perhaps the luster that is somewhat subdued by the intense color precludes an MS64.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Robert Scot<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>\)
