1845-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 13-H. AU-55 (PCGS).
Tinges of orange-apricot enliven honey-gold color on both sides of this richly and attractively original example. Sharply struck, lustrous - a thoroughly PQ example. With a mintage of 90,629 pieces, the 1845-D is among the more available Dahlonega half eagles, although this coin is far finer than the typically seen VF or EF, and even finer than most certified Choice AU pieces we have offered over the years. A find for collectors of mintmarked gold type coins and specialists in Southern gold.
PCGS# 8224. NGC ID: 25TC.
From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set.

Estimate: $5500
