Owner's Description

I bought this type coin in 2003 as ANACS 61 and it upgraded to 63. I found myself gravitating towards type coins even then in my earlier collecting days. Now, in 2008, I seldom buy anything else except for the new mint commems to keep my collection up to date.<br /><br />*********************<br />1855 HALF CENT<br />*********************<br /><br />Mintage:<br />Circulation strikes: 56,500<br />Proofs: estimated 25<br /><br />Designer: Christian Gobrecht<br /><br />Diameter: 23 millimeters<br /><br />Metal content:<br />Copper - 100%<br /><br />Weight: 84 grains (5.44 grams)<br /><br />Edge: Plain
