- 1878-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). A frosty and generally boldly defined AU-50 example that offers vivid color in bold honey-rose. Half eagle production at the San Francisco Mint increased markedly in 1878 with a mintage of 144,700 pieces. Unfortunately for today's collectors, this increase in mintage did not result in a generous supply of quality survivors. Most examples saw extensive commercial use, and even attractive coins at the About Uncirculated level are elusive. For the grade, this is one of the nicest 1878-S fives that we have had the privilege of bringing to auction in recent years. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CAG Set.
