<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 180766, member: 66&quot;]I&nbsp; have compilations of all of the laws passed relating to US coinage from 1792 to 1894 and there is no legislation retroactively referring to the 1792 half disme.&nbsp; The 1793 large cent was not legal tender until 1864.&nbsp; The 1793 half cent wasn&#039;t legal tender until 1965.&nbsp; Now the coinage act of 1965 could possibly be seen as making the 1792 half disme legal tender, but it would have to have been a legal coin first!&nbsp; Since it could not have been legally issued, it wasn&#039;t a coin and therefore the Act of 1965 wouldn&#039;t apply to it either.&nbsp; Just as the Act does not apply to any of the other pattern coin issues.&nbsp; They are not legal tender either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
