Losbeschreibung

1850-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 28-U. EF-45 (NGC). Bright medium gold surfaces with a tinge of pale underlying olive and a trace of subtle pinkish-rose iridescence. Traces of mint reflectivity remain in the fields and are best appreciated with the aid of direct lighting. Softly struck overall, typical of the issue, with the D mintmark soft due to having been lightly entered into the reverse die of the Winter 27-U and 28-U varieties. Yet while its lower half is mostly indistinct, the upper portion of the D is appreciably sharper when viewed with a loupe. Sharp peripheral cracks through the words UNITED, STATES and FIVE are characteristic of this die pairing. PCGS# 8245. NGC ID: 25U3. Click here for certification details from NGC.
