If someone needs a wonderfully original NGC 1795 flowing-hair half-dollar....

TeleTrade has one available here .

 

I have no insider information about the coin whatsoever - just stumbled across it while browsing.

Looks pretty nice for a VG-10.

That same coin sold at Heritage a month ago for $1,265, but the Heritage photos make it look more like a VG coin: 1975 Heritage

Looks pretty nice for a VG-10.

It does, and that's because it's an O-105. The obverse of this die-marriage is more or less the equivalent of a "shielded hair" variety (to borrow an EAC term). The hair detail on this variety is deeply cut and always struck well, which tends to make the coins look nicer than the actual overall grade. That's why it's an ideal candidate for a type set, and thus I thought it might be worth mentioning here.

Or, if you just want a cheapass example, you can always buy mine!

Hey I got one of those. But mine says 1795 twice and has this big ol crack on the back
