Description

1848-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-50 (PCGS).

Attractive deep honey color is seen on both sides, accented by plenty of olive highlights. There is abundant frosty luster as well as bold to sharp striking detail. A scarcer Charlotte Mint gold issue, the 1848-C half eagle is much more elusive than a mintage of 64,472 pieces might imply, especially in About Uncirculated and Mint State grades, at which levels examples are rare.

PCGS# 8237. NGC ID: 25TT.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
