1850 Liberty Head Eagle. Small Date. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.

This pretty example displays medium rose highlights on dominant deep olive-gold color. Well defined overall with plenty of original satin luster in evidence. The Small Date is by far the scarcer logotype of the 1850 eagle (combined mintage: 291,451 circulation strikes), although this fact is not widely recognized. Very well preserved and attractive in all regards, our offering of this Choice AU is a significant bidding opportunity for the astute gold enthusiast. The date logotype used for this variety was intended for large cents and half eagles.

PCGS# 8604. NGC ID: 2638.

PCGS Population: 9; 6 finer (MS-63 finest). CAC Population: 4; 1.
