Description

1837 Classic Head Half Eagle. HM-2. Rarity-3+. Block 8, Broken Arrow. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
Handsome honey-apricot surfaces are near-fully lustrous with a pleasing frosty texture. Boldly to sharply defined overall with superior eye appeal for the assigned grade. After producing record numbers of Classic Head half eagles in 1834 and 1836, production of this denomination returned to more normal levels in 1837 with 207,121 pieces. The 1837 is one of the two scarcest Philadelphia Mint issues of this brief design type, and AU examples with the quality offered here are rare relative to demand.
PCGS# 8175. NGC ID: 25RZ.
From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
