    Description

    The 1795 Flowing Hair half dollar is a cornerstone of early American coinage, marking the second year of production for this design. This particular year is noted for its transitional significance, as it reflects the fledgling efforts of the young U.S. Mint to establish a stable coinage system. Its low mintage only adds to the historical intrigue, especially for those with an eye for U.S. numismatic history.
    This coin, featuring a recut date (1795/1795) and the "2 leaves" reverse die, is graded F15 by PCGS and housed in a classic OGH. It shows honest wear across its surfaces, with all significant design elements remaining intact. The coin displays an appealing, uniform light-gray patina, which adds depth to the recessed areas. Despite its circulated condition, the details of Liberty's hair and the eagle's wings are still discernible. A genuinely solid example for any early type collection.
