<p>[QUOTE="coinmaster1, post: 958045, member: 26741"]This is a coin authoized by Massachusetts on October 17th, 1786. These coinsx were the first coins under Congress to have the word "CENT" struck on them. This 1788 Massachusetts Half Cent is worth about $300, according to the 2011 Red Book Price Guide to U.S. Coins. But honestly, sorry to say, but the coin looks fake. The lettering is was to scrawny, compared to the bold lettering on a genuine coin. And the man on the front of your's looks like somebody drew it. In my opinion, fake dies were used on a fake planchet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
