1808 Draped Bust Half Cent. C-3. Rarity-1. MS-63 BN (PCGS). Type: Type IV: Draped Bust.Design: Obv: A draped bust of Liberty faces right, her hair tied with a ribbon. The word LIBERTY is above and the date 1808 is below. Rev: Design of 1802 to 1808. A wreath surrounds the denomination HALF CENT, the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the border and another expression of the denomination, 1/200, below. A ribbon knot with double bow binds the base of the wreath.Weight Standard: 84 grains (5.44 grams).Diameter: 23.5 mm.Die Variety: Cohen-3, Breen-3, Gilbert-2. Obv: The only normal (i.e., not overdate) obverse of the date, and the only use of this die. The second digit 8 is tall and nearly touches the base of Libertys bust. Rev: There are five berries on each branch, a bold engravers scratch joins the right branch stem to the final letter A in AMERICA, a short spine extends from the tip of the leaf below the letter R in the same word. The outer leaf in the cluster of two at the right extends just past the first letter A in AMERICA, an inner berry is opposite the top of the letter T in CENT. This die was used earlier in the 1808 C-2 pairing.Cohen-3 is the only die variety of the normal date 1808 half cent listing in the <em>Guide Boo</em><em>k</em>.Die State: Manley 3.0, described as "scarce." Obv: Faint die rust streaks are evident in the right obverse field and near the border behind the ribbon ends. Denticulation is weak along the right border, the field around Libertys portrait slightly swollen due to die bulge. Rev: Border denticulation is incomplete, and the inner berry to the right of the letter T in CENT is very faint. There is a shallow depression in the field between the letters IT in UNITED, a light crack from the berry inside the wreath at the C in CENT connects with the branch.Edge: Plain.Mintage: The reported half cent mintage for calendar year 1808 is 400,000 coins, achieved in two deliveries:-Late March: 64,000 coins-June 30: 336,000 coinsMany of the coins delivered that year were from 1807-dated dies, so the exact mintage from 1808-dated dies unknown.Estimated Surviving Population for the Issue: More than 2,200 coins in all grades.Estimated Surviving Population for the Die Variety: Rarity-1: More than 2,000 coins in all grades.Strike: This is a well struck coin for the die state, Libertys portrait, the word LIBERTY and the date are crisp on the obverse. All major design elements on the reverse are bold to sharp except for the uppermost leaves in the wreath, which are a bit blunt.Surfaces: A frosty example with golden-apricot and powder blue undertones to dominant antique copper patina on the obverse, autumn-brown toning on the reverse. Both sides are smooth with only a few faint handling marks that one will need a loupe to discern.Commentary: This is the only readily obtainable of the three known die marriages of the 1808-dated half cent issue, and several Mint State examples are known. Such coins are significant condition rarities. A strong contender for CC#1 is the Missouri Cabinet-Pogue specimen in PCGS MS-64+ BN that brought $56,400 in our March 2017 Pogue V sale. Also ranking among the finest that we have ever had the privilege of bringing to auction, the Choice Uncirculated example from the ESM Collection would do equally well in a high quality type or date set.
