The 1792 Half Disme Donated by Steven Contursi, valued at $250,000, was on display at the ANA Money Show Atlanta. In December 2011, Steven Contursi donated the coin to the ANA museum as his way of giving back to an association that he has always believed in. The ANA’s collection originally featured a 1792 half disme, graded extremely fine, but the coin was stolen from the collection. Steve Contursi donated his 1792 half disme, graded AU58, which was featured at the Atlanta Money Show.
