Description du lot

This handsome piece exhibits dominant deep khaki-gold color with hints of light rose evident as the surfaces rotate under lighting. All major design elements are bold, and the in hand appearance is impressively smooth for a Dahlonega Mint half eagle that saw considerable commercial use. The rarest of the four die pairings of the 1849-D half eagle, the Winter 24-R attribution features the only use of these obverse and reverse dies. Southern gold variety enthusiasts are urged to pay special attention to this offering.
