Lot Description

1846-D/D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 17-J. EF-45 (PCGS). Light honey-gold color with a tinge of pale olive, this satiny and smooth-looking example presents uncommonly well in a lightly circulated Southern gold coin from the 1840s. Boldly defined overall with the secondary D mintmark sharp and clear when observed with the aid of a loupe. A desirable example of both the variety and die pairing. PCGS# 8229. NGC ID: 25TH.
