Lot Description

1899/99 Liberty Half Eagle. FS-301. MS-60 (NGC). 1846 Liberty Eagle. AU-55 (NGC). This is the variety with the repunching on the date to the left, rather dramatic for a gold coin of this late era. Satiny gold luster throughout, reasonably sharp and decent surfaces with moderate handling evidence.
