Owner Comments:
.1803 1/2C PCGS VG 8The 1803 Half Cent had the second lowest mintage of all the Draped Bust Half Cents, used in the United States from 1800-1808. A neat example of the type, this draped bust half cent is the common (R-1) C-1 variety. Well worn and a nice chocolate brown, all the details are visible. An area of discoloration on the right obverse field and some light corrosion and verdigris on the reverse are both noted. All in all a nice VG that now lives in a Dansco type set.
