Owner Comments:

The 1809 C-4 R.3 Classic Head Half Cents are hard to find above VF grades. NGC has only graded a total of 6 with the highest graded being a AU-58. The zero of the date is repunched so there appears to be a circle within the zero. It is often seen in the late die state so that in grading, allowances are made for the worn dies. This NGC graded 1809 C-4 is graded AU-55 and is a late die state. A hub was used to punched the head. This hub has a defect which appears on a number of of obverses. There is a line from the throat across the bust at an upward 45 deg. angle and terminates in the hair to the right of the ribbon.
