Description

1794 H10C V-2, LM-2, R.5, AU55 NGC. Only the LM-1 variety is scarcer among the four die marriages used to strike an unknown-but-small mintage of 1794-dated pieces. All Flowing Hair half dimes were struck in 1795, but only a limited number of those carry the 1794 date, and most likely all were included in the Mint's delivery of half dimes on March 30, 1795. This example displays russet and blue border toning with pale-ivory interiors. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
