Description du lot

Significant Mint State 1844-D Half Eagle 1844-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 11-G. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. A thoroughly appealing, solidly graded Mint State Dahlonega Mint $5. Displaying warm olive-gold color, both sides also exhibit blushes of pale rose patina here and there around the peripheries. Frosty luster is full and lively, and it includes modest semi-reflectivity in the fields. With a razor sharp strike and abundant eye appeal, this premium quality example is worthy of the strongest bids. Winter 11-G is encountered more frequently than 12-G, the only other die pairing known for this issue. The former attribution is identifiable by the close spacing between the digit 4 in the date and the base of Liberty's portrait. PCGS Population: 12; 12 finer (MS-64 finest). CAC Population: 2; 2. PCGS# 8221. NGC ID: 25T9. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
