Description

1839-D Classic Head Quarter Eagle. HM-1, Winter 1-B. Rarity-5. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
It is difficult for us to imagine a more attractive and desirable example of this issue at the Choice AU grade level. Vivid deep orange surfaces are near-fully lustrous with ample evidence of a frosty to modestly semi-reflective finish. The strike is razor sharp apart from a touch of softness in the centers -- typical of the issue -- and the surfaces are free of all but trivial signs of handling that are well within the context of the assigned grade. Among About Uncirculated examples of the issue this is one of the very finest, a nearly Mint State survivor that has met with strict CAC approval. It is sure to sell for a strong bid to a discerning Southern gold enthusiast
PCGS# 7700. NGC ID: 25G5.
PCGS Population: 7; 18 finer (MS-64 finest). CAC Population: 5; 2.
