Liberty Head Half Eagle
1844 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.
A fully struck sandy-gold example with an uncommonly smooth, satin texture for the assigned grade. Attractive and free of any notable abrasions. One of the scarcer Philadelphia Mint half eagles from the 1840s, the 1844 is seen less often than the 1843 or 1847. As with all early date issues of this type the 1844 is highly elusive in Mint State, the present example among the finest known to PCGS with only 12 graded higher. A find for the better date type collector or advanced Liberty Head half eagle enthusiast.
