Description

1880-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.

Undeniably original and attractive deep honey-orange surfaces set this coin apart from the vast majority of 1880-S half eagles extant. Both sides are expectably close to Mint State preservation for the assigned grade and are sure to please discerning gold enthusiasts. The 1880-S is the first San Francisco Mint half eagle issue with a mintage of more than 1 million coins (1,348,900 pieces, to be exact), and it is popular for type purposes in circulated and lower Mint State grades.

PCGS# 8353. NGC ID: 25XC.

CAC Population: 6 in all AU grades.

From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
