Lot Description

1841-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 5-D. Die State I. Repunched Date, Small D. EF-45 (PCGS). Attractive khaki-gold over both the obverse and reverse. Scattered handling marks from brief circulation but better visual appeal than commonly seen on these early half eagles. The strike is average these pieces are scarce today. Noteworthy are the second vertical shield stripes which don't quite make it to the top from the left side on the reverse, perhaps this was some kind of centering issue. PCGS# 8204. NGC ID: 25SR.
