The host half cent may have graded Good or so before being rolled out at the convention. The date of the hair cent can just be made out and much of the host legend remains easily readable. Frosty chocolate brown with generous traces of "mint" red remaining in protected areas on the reverse (the side with the raised convention logo design). Obvious quite rare as very few collectors would be willing to sacrifice a collectible half cent for an elongated convention souvenir. Ex 1997 EAC Sale, lot 71-R.
