Description du lot

1851-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 26-R. Repunched Date. AU-50 (PCGS). A warmly patinated honey-gold Dahlonega half eagle with the sharpest detail evident toward the borders on both sides. Despite a mintage of 62,710 pieces, the 1851-D numbers among the top 10 rarest half eagle issues from this Southern mint. The present example is finer than the typically offered VF or EF, and has the added interest of a repunched first digit 1 in the date. PCGS# 8248. NGC ID: 25U7.
