    @habaraca it looks like 1812 was a year of misses for the mint!

    Love that half dime!
    I believe that’s the farthest off center and highest grade I’ve seen of that denomination…

    The first strike was off center.

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    As cool as these are, sadly I sold my last two a couple months back.
