    Description

    1833 1/2 C C-1, B-1, R.1, MS64 Red NGC.
    Manley Die State 2.0. A splendid orange-red near-Gem. Hints of lilac accompany the curls and right obverse field. Well struck and free from noticeable marks. Only one die pair is known for the 1833 half cent, despite a reasonable mintage of 120,000 pieces. Only a tiny percentage of the issue retains its introductory Red color. Housed in a pre-hologram holder. Census: 8 in 64 Red, 0 finer (6/21).
    From The Dickson Collection.
