Description

1842-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 7-E. Small Date, Small Letters. MS-62 (PCGS).
This bright and vivid example exhibits beautiful orange-gold color to both sides. The finish is full with intense semi-reflectivity in the fields, the texture satiny otherwise. Sharply struck overall, and impressively so for the issuing mint, freedom from all but wispy handling marks further confirms the significance of this Mint State 1842-D $5. While NGC reports a single grading event in MS-63, the finest known to PCGS are certified MS-62. The offered coin ranks high in the Condition Census for the issue, as such, and will be perfect for another advanced Southern gold cabinet.
PCGS# 8210. NGC ID: 25SX.
PCGS Population: 6; 0 finer.
