Losbeschreibung

1855 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-62 (NGC). This delightful Mint State half eagle is boldly to sharply struck with pretty pinkish-gold patina, full mint luster, and a satiny texture. While circulated examples of this issue are quite available by No Motto Liberty Head half eagle standards, in Mint State the 1855 is an underrated condition rarity. Even in lower Uncirculated grades such as MS-60 and MS-61 it is highly elusive. Approaching the Choice level the present MS-62 represents a particularly significant find for the astute gold coin enthusiast. Provenance: From the Francesca Collection. NGC Census: 5; 10 finer (MS-64 finest). PCGS# 8261. NGC ID: 25UP. Click here for certification details from NGC.
