- Underrated 1848-D Half Eagle
1848-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 22-O. Die State II. MS-62 (PCGS).
A gorgeous example, both sides sport vivid olive-apricot color and intense mint luster. The finish is generally frosty, but with considerable reflectivity in the fields. The strike is truly impressive by Dahlonega Mint standards with razor sharp to full definition throughout the design. With premium MS-62 quality and outstanding visual appeal, the offered example ranks high in the Condition Census for the issue and is sure to see spirited bidding.
The Winter 22-O is the most popular die pairing of this issue, for its early die state is a dramatic D/D repunched mintmark variety. (See below for an example of that die state.) The present example is from a later die state and, while the first mintmark has largely worn off the die or been effaced by lapping, a trace remains along the outside of the upright of the primary D.
PCGS Population: 5; 3 finer (MS-63+ finest).
PCGS# 8238. NGC ID: 25TU.
