Losbeschreibung

1854-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Weak C. AU-58 (PCGS). Vivid rose-orange blankets both sides of this exceptionally attractive Charlotte Mint five. Well defined apart from a touch of softness in isolated areas, the surfaces are satiny in texture with a pleasingly smooth appearance. An underrated issue in this challenging Southern gold series, the 1854-C is one of the scarcer Charlotte Mint half eagles from the 1850s. Winter-2, offered here, is the Weak C variety of the issue, the mintmark faint, yet discernible to the unaided eye. Superior quality and eye appeal for an issue that is typically offered no finer than EF. Provenance: From The Des Moines Collection. PCGS# 98257. NGC ID: 25UH.
