    Description

    Very seldom seen early Draped Bust half dime with SMALL EAGLE reverse. Most have been mutilated or worn slick, but this example has full rims and wonderful details remaining, especially on the obverse. But for a very minor edge “pinch” (at 4:00 obverse/2:00 reverse) and a harsh cleaning, this coin would be worth many thousands of dollars today. This is a perfect chance to fill that gaping (although tiny!) hole in your early US type set! Don’t let this opportunity pass you by. This one won’t last long. Offered with NO RESERVE! (Previously sold, but relisted due to buyer’s failure to pay.)
    PLEASE NOTE:
    I have been an eBay member since 1999 with over 600 transactions and a 100% positive rating. I am now liquidating my 60-year coin and currency collection. However, due to eBay’s new payment policies, I initially could not list my coins on my original account because I accepted the new “managed payments” system, which at that time excluded coins. In order to list coins, I had to establish a new account which didn’t use the new system, but dealt with PayPal payments like the old policy. Now I am being forced to convert THIS account to the “managed payments” system or lose the ability to list ANYTHING on eBay! I will continue to list items from my collection on this account, but if you would like, please check my original, and still active, account (“stillprospector23”) for my legitimacy. Thank you for your understanding!
