Description

1858-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 43-HH. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC.

Appealing olive-orange surfaces are attractively original with nearly full satin mint luster. Central striking detail is suitably bold for the issue, the balance of the surfaces also well struck. A touch of glossiness to the texture is noted for accuracy, but this an attractive AU Dahlonega half eagle, and a noteworthy rarity, as such. It is a superior survivor from a mintage of just 15,362 pieces, the vast majority of which grade VF or EF, and many of which are also significantly impaired. Sure to see spirited bidding among astute Southern gold enthusiasts.

PCGS# 8278. NGC ID: 25V9.

CAC Population: 17 in all AU grades.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
