Description

1856-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 39-FF. AU-53 (PCGS).

The elusive 1856-D half eagle was produced to the extent of just 19,786 pieces, and survivors are scarce in lower grades and rare above the Choice EF level. This issue is a noteworthy rarity in Mint State with only 25 to 30 distinct coins believed extant at that level. A scarce AU survivor, this piece offers vivid deep honey-orange color and plenty of mint luster. The surfaces are free of troublesome blemishes.

PCGS# 8268. NGC ID: 25UX.

From the Fairmont Collection - Kronen Set.
