Losbeschreibung

1840-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Charlotte Mint Label. EF-45 (NGC). Handsome deep honey-orange patina blankets both sides of this overall boldly defined example. Faint remnants of satiny mint luster are discernible here and there around the devices as the coin dips into a light. The first Charlotte Mint half eagle with the mintmark located on the reverse, the 1840-C is a scarce issue with an uncommonly low rate of survival even for a Southern gold issue from the early 1840s. Seldom offered in any grade, the opportunity to acquire this pleasing Choice EF deserves serious bidder consideration. Holdered by NGC with a specialty Charlotte Mint label. PCGS# 8196. NGC ID: 25SD.
