1843 Braided Hair Half Cent (1/2c) Original

Gem proof copper with stunning patina - magenta, teal, lemon-gold, and rose blanket the fields while the devices show rich chocolate-brown. The mirrors are deep and glassy, the strike razor-sharp, and the surfaces look fully original. One of just two PR65RB examples approved or graded by CAC, with no finer RB examples, and no RD specimens approved in any grade. Truly a trophy quality half cent.
