So, which would you think is harder to find a nice example of....
1794 half cent (say, in the VF-XF range) or
1802 half cent (in the VG-F range)
?
And, I am talking no issues that would prevent it from being holdered.
I know what I have seen available over the last 2 years or so, but wondering what others that may know the series think.....

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Weren't the majority of '02's struck on old cut down large cent planchets or something similar?
I have seen more 1802, but like you say, most of those are not that nice looking.

<< <i>If you are willing to go the annual EAC auction, and you are willing accept a piece that has been skillfully recolored, I think that the 1794 in VF-EF is easier to find than the 1802 in strict VG-Fine with smooth surfaces. Most of the 1802 half cents you see grade Good with poor to so-so surfaces. >>
Bill is correct.
many better ( that I could afford ) since then but have seen many vf-xf 1794's in that time period - so in
my opinion 1802 is harder to locate hands down
