The series has fascinated me since I was in high school. I couldn’t afford any of them then. I got my first early half dime, an 1800 “LIBEKTY,” after I landed my first job after college.</p><p><br /></p><p>There was a decent 1802 half dime which Northeast Numismatics had for over a year. It was graded VG, and they had it marked $155,000 which was too much. They would not budge much from that price. I figured its retail value was around $125,000. It finally came up in a Heritage auction. That was about what it sold for including the buyers fee.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
