Obverse: Star 7 hollow center, slender points OBV. 11. S1UH, S7LE-CHb, S8B, S13UH. Star 7 with its slender points has the appearance of a daisy. The difference from other stars on this same coin, or any other star 7 in 1834 is pronounced. Date is 7 mm. with the numerals widely and evenly spaced. Mouth is open and the upper lip has a sharp curl, might be called a harelip. Late states show little milling and stars drawn to edge.

Reverse: Stripes 1 and 2 each have 1 line to fifth crossbar REV. L. A1B, A2UE, A3C. 50 C. is 1 mm. and high. 5 is small with a straight top and the loop is nearly closed. A-A is 1 ¼ mm. Besides the two 2 stripe lines to the fifth crossbar, several other lines penetrate to the second and third crossbars. Line 3 of stripe 3 extends below shield. Left side of I under right side of T. Some early die states show a die lump in field between eagles beak and scroll and 0 in 50 C. widely recut at top. Lapping of die in late states has removed the lump and evidence of recutting at 0 in 50 C. Milling also disappears in late states. (65,64,64,62,61) R.3

About CDN Prices

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.

CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.

Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.

Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.

CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.

Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.

The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
