- Wonderfully Original 1795 O-102 Flowing Hair Half
1795 Flowing Hair Half Dollar. O-102, T-26. Rarity-3. Two Leaves. EF-40 (PCGS). CAC.
This is a richly original, thoroughly appealing Flowing Hair half dollar at the EF grade level. Light silver-gray high points contrast with bolder olive-gray and russet toning elsewhere to provide a highly desirable circulated cameo appearance. The surfaces are smooth, inviting, and retain plenty of sharp striking detail both at the borders and in the protected areas of the central design elements. Difficult to improve upon for the assigned grade, and worthy of the strongest bids. Tompkins Die Stage 1/1.
The Overton-102 variety of the 1795 Flowing Hair half dollar is readily attributable by the reverse die, which is the only one of its issue with the berries arranged on the wreath nine left, eight right with two berries inside and one outside the wreath below the eagle's right wing. This reverse die is unknown in any other pairing. Among the more readily obtainable die marriages of the date in an absolute sense, this handsome example would do equally well in a circulated type set or specialized variety collection.
Provenance: From Legend Rare Coin Auctions' Regency Auction 37, March 2020, lot 291.
CAC Population (all die marriages of the issue): 16 in EF-40.
PCGS# 39215. NGC ID: 24E7.
