详细说明

1845-O Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-53 (PCGS). CAC. Vivid orange-rose highlights blend with dominant honey-olive color, the surfaces attractively original in preservation. Both sides are sharply struck with plenty of softly frosted luster. The 1845-O is underrated, especially when compared to many of the more highly regarded Charlotte and Dahlonega mint issues of its era. Survivors from a mintage of 41,000 pieces are elusive in all grades and likely number no more than 200 coins. Most are circulated, and the typical market appearance is for a VF or EF example. Only a small number of Mint State coins are known; this premium AU example represents the finest realistically obtainable by most of today's collectors. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set. PCGS# 8225. NGC ID: 25TD. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
