FSHO 1853 half cent-SOLD

Good evening, all:

Below are links to photos of an 1853 half cent. This coin is part of a small lot of U.S. coins that I have been cataloging and assessing for a friend and neighbor here in northwest Connecticut. Although not apparent in the photos, the coin exhibits traces of red, mostly in the protected recesses of the hair. Also, some of the high points (jaw and rim particularly) display very faint hints of gunmetal toning.

I see no evidence of wear on this coin, and I represent it as original. I am asking $135.00 plus $7.00 toward priority mail and insurance. If P&I is more, I’ll pay the difference. If less, I’ll refund the difference.

Term: I will ship to domestic addresses only, insured. Personal check and postal money order ok, the former of which must clear, please. I don’t patronize Paypal; too many horror stories. There is a return privilege: if you so decide, please have the coin (in as-sent condition) in the mail within 7 days of receipt for an immediate refund of $135.00.

I am a math professor in CT and a student of US coinage since the 1960s when my grandfather Whit Hart got me started. On Ebay, I am davidwm. On request, I will gladly send you an email from my Ebay account in verification of my Ebay identity.

Thank you. And thanks to PCGS for providing this avenue of sale.
