Description du lot

Vivid apricot iridescence enlivens otherwise warm honey-gold color. Both sides are fully frosted with a sharply executed strike. Although plentiful in worn condition, the 1853 is similar to other Philadelphia Mint half eagles of the era in that it develops into a significant condition rarity at and near Mint State. This solidly graded and visually appealing Choice AU example would be just right for a high grade date set or advanced type collection.
