Description

1846-D/D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 16-J. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC.
Attractive, fully original surfaces display a blend of deep honey-gold and pale pinkish-apricot. Lustrous and well defined for the grade, most design elements are boldly to sharply rendered. The 1846-D issue includes a dramatic and popular variety, a widely repunched mintmark with bold remnants of the first D readily evident above and to the right of the primary mintmark. The top of the first mintmark is lost in the olive branch. The 1846-D/D is more available than its normal mintmark counterpart, although the typical example grades no finer than EF. This is a scarce Choice EF survivor, with the first D sharp, that is sure to create excitement among advanced Southern gold enthusiasts.
PCGS# 8229. NGC ID: 25TH.
CAC Stickered Population: 3; 15.
From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set.
