1853 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS).
Vivid reddish-rose iridescence enlivens otherwise deep honey-gold color. Both sides are fully frosted with a sharply executed strike. Although plentiful in worn condition, the 1853 is similar to other Philadelphia Mint half eagles of the era in that it develops into a significant condition rarity in Mint State. This solidly graded and visually appealing Mint State example would be just right for a high grade date set or advanced type collection.
PCGS# 8253. NGC ID: 25UD.
From the Fairmont Collection - CAG Set.
