<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 7784858, member: 101855&quot;]One of the big problems with the half cent series is that there are big holes in forming a date run of them. There are little holes, like the 1798 and 1799 and larger holes like 1812 to 1824. The killer is the 1840 to 1848 hole when there are Proof coins available which are virtually unobtainable. Many collectors look at that and say, &quot;never mind.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>One part of the half cent set that gets little collector interest are the coins from 1849 to 1857. The 1852 is a Proof only date, but the rest are collectible. Dealers will tell you that they are slow sellers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
