HALF CENT, DRAPED BUST (1800 - 1808) FINE
Note: Item pictured is sample from same time period and not the actual sale item.
The half cent is the smallest denomination of United States coin ever minted. It was first minted in 1793 and last minted in 1857. It was minted in five different appearances. Its size is roughly that of a modern day US quarter.
"Draped Bust" was the name given to a design of United States coins. It appeared on much of the regular-issue copper and silver United States coinage, 1796–1807. It was designed by engraver Robert Scot.
