1809 Classic Head Half Cent. AG3
A couple points sharper but lightly corroded. No verdigris, and the only notable sign of contact is a dull, very shallow dent in the center of the obverse that causes a slight bulge in the center of the reverse. The date is strong and the legends are complete except for UNITED, which is faint at best. Light olive and golden brown with darker olive brown toning covering the fields and protected areas. Extremely rare LDS, Manley state 3.0, with a large, strong cud break joining MERI to the rim above. The cud is complete and bold in spite of the low grade. One of only 4 known in this terminal die state. A very important piece for the half cent specialist.
