In the early years of coin minting, the half-cent pennies from the 1790s are considered to be the most valuable. Collectors should inspect the dates meticulously when seeking these rare pieces.

When discussing rare years, the half-cent stands out due to its extremely low mintage numbers in specific periods. One such year is 1796, where the circulation of these coins was notably limited.

Another notable rare year for half-cent pennies is 1802. During this time, the mintage was similarly low, making these coins highly sought after by collectors and numismatists.

The year 1831 also marks a significant period for half-cent pennies due to their scarcity. Collectors must be vigilant in their search for coins from this era.

Besides checking the dates, collectors should also pay attention to the details of the coins. For instance, they should examine whether there is a pole with Lady Liberty's cap present on the coin, as this can be an indicator of its authenticity and rarity.
