1800 Half Dime PCGS VF25
Half Dimes 1800 Valentine-1b. PCGS graded Very Fine 25. <b>Designs incorporate a draped bust Liberty with heraldic eagle reverse (1800 to 1805 only). Dull gray toning on both sides, possibly cleaned long ago, it has a few random hairlines in the field. Nice centering on a problem-free flan. Late die state in which a small rim break occurs below 00 in date. On this variety (one of three for the year 1800) the top of the 8 is above the 1, the bottom of 8 below 1 slightly. All three varieties have the identical reverse. Commonest 1800 at Rarity-3 according to Valentine's seminal work on this historic half dime series.</b> <p align="center">Superior Galleries was founded in 1929 and has been a leader in
