You don't often see these this close to EF. It's a very attractive coin in the hand. What's not to like?
In my experience, high grade halfpennies are harder to come by than pennies from this era. More difficult than most other denominations, I'd say.
Common in low grades, quite rewarding in middle grades, but by the time you get to this level with these, they are serious coins. Take them seriously
Halfpennies are just as interesting as Bun Pennies as far as varieties are concerned. There's only two 1863s, but at least 15 types of 1861, for instance. They haven't gone crazy yet, like Bun Pennies have, but they should, and they might. This one is R10 in Freeman
Good strong coin with a mature lustre, so if you don't have a high grade example yet, have a good look
Uncirculated. Beautiful example. Coins at this level really are things of beauty
If you are looking at coins at this level then I don't have to tell you that the vast majority of 1862 halfpennies that you see are in a much worse state than this one.
I just love the edge on these. You get the feeling they were quite proud of being able to do that. Buy it and have a look, if you don't know what I'm talking about - you don't see high grade examples of them that often.
A slightly weak strike as you usually find on these, but there's lovely lustre and barely any real wear to speak of. Check yours...time for an upgrade?
Very high grade coin with plenty of detail and good lustre, so if yours is due for an upgrade, have a good look.
