- A Second Choice 1795 C-6a Half Cent 1795 Liberty Cap Half Cent. C-6a. Rarity-2. Plain Edge, No Pole. Thin Planchet--Overstruck on a Talbot, Allum, & Lee Cent--AU-55 BN (NGC). A remarkable second AU-55 Cohen-6a half cent overstruck on a Talbot, Allum & Lee cent. This piece exhibits bright brassy-gold and steel-blue highlights to dominant patina in light orange-brown. The central devices are sharply defined, as are the peripheral features with the exception of the word OF in the reverse legend. Both sides are fairly well centered on the planchet, the reverse a bit less so than the obverse, the denticulation incomplete due lack of strike in isolated border areas. Satiny in texture with a hard, tight appearance, bold remnants of the undertype here and there around the peripheries further enhances the appeal of this attractive example. PCGS# 35089. Provenance: From the Catherine Bullowa Moore Collection.
