Lot Description

1852-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 33-V. EF-45 (NGC). CAC. An olive-honey example with impressively original surfaces. Both sides are remarkably smooth and mark free for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint $5. Areas of softness are seen both in the centers and at the borders, but to no great detriment given the bold Choice EF detail elsewhere. Our multiple offerings for such pieces in this sale notwithstanding, premium quality examples of the 1852-D with CAC approval are scarce to rare in all grades and can be difficult to locate under normal market conditions. An aggressive bidding strategy will be required to be successful here. PCGS# 8252. NGC ID: 25UC. Click here for certification details from NGC.
