-3igKbzbi4e4AAAFLMGT6AgrJ.jpg "1/2 Cent USA (1776 - ) Copper")
1802/0 C-2 R3 Overdate 2 over 0, Reverse of 1803 VF25. Struck over Spoiled Large Cent. Glossy chocolate brown with bluish steel overtones and faint hints of reddish brown toning in protected areas. The only notable defects are very tiny rim bruises at E in ERTY and F in OF, plus traces of microscopic roughness at 02 and the bust above with similar faint roughness at TED in UNITED. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0. Struck over a cut-down spoiled large cent with strong undertype from the cent reverse visible on the obverse of the half cent. Portions of the cent wreath are clearly visible in the field and dentils behind the head, and the "O" from ONE shows at the upper ribbon end. No cent undertype is visible on the reverse of the half cent, possibly because the cent was struck uniface. The overdate feature is sharp. An attractive example of this popular overdate variety, made even more desirable with the strong cent undertype. This example is mentioned on page 94 of the Manley book on the series and is plated on page 39 in the second edition of the Cohen book. Manley estimates less than a dozen examples of this variety show undertype from a spoiled large cent. Weight 79.3 grains. Davy #02.2.4. Estimated Value $8,000-UP. Ex Anderson Dupont, Stack's 11/11/54:1067-Willard C. Blaisdell-William K. Raymond 8/24/77. Categories:
