Lot Description

1851-O Liberty Head Half Eagle. EF-45 (NGC). The surfaces display a pleasing khaki-gold color with scattered olive accents throughout. Subtle traces of luster show in the protected areas, complementing the overall smooth fields at this grade level. The typical softness is apparent at the arrow feathers on the reverse, though the balance of the design elements are boldly pronounced for the issue. Evenly worn and attractive in-hand. One of just about 100 examples throughout to exist. PCGS# 8249. NGC ID: 25U9. Click here for certification details from NGC.
