Lot Description

1906-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-65 (PCGS). Soft satin luster in warm honey-orange flows over serene surfaces. Boldly to sharply struck with superior technical quality and outstanding eye appeal for a late date Liberty Head half eagle irrespective of issue. The first Denver Mint half eagle, and one of only two of the Liberty Head design type, the 1906-D is scarcer than the 1907-D in all grades. This conditionally scarce MS-65 is a strong candidate for a high grade date collection or an advanced mintmarked gold type set. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set. PCGS# 8414.
