Description

1856 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC.

Appealing frosty surfaces display vivid, original color in deep honey-apricot. Sharply to fully struck and not all that far from a Choice Mint State rating. An otherwise plentiful issue by 1850s Liberty Head half eagle standards, the 1856 is elusive at the present level of preservation, and this coin represents an important bidding opportunity for the specialist.

PCGS# 8266. NGC ID: 25UV.

CAC Population: 21 in all Mint State grades.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
