The weight change corresponded with a change in design and the introduction of William Kneass Classic Head type, which would remain current only through 1838. Scarce in all Mint State grades due to the brevity of the series, most Classic Head half eagles obtained for high grade type purposes are examples of the first year 1834 issue of the Plain 4 date logotype. The second year 1835 has a more limited mintage (371,534 vs. 657,460 pieces) and is scarcer in all grades than its first year counterpart. As a solidly graded and aesthetically pleasing Gem the coin offered here is nothing short of rare from a condition standpoint.,,
