- 1846-O Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-3. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. Blended pale rose highlights enliven dominant honey-olive patina, the surfaces also revealing wisps of faded luster as the coin dips into a light. Though 58,000 half eagles of this date and mintmark combination were struck, the coffers of commerce put much of the mintage to use. The end result is that the majority of survivors appear in the VF to EF range, the present coin with superior quality and eye appeal at the upper end of that range. Writing in the 2018 edition of the reference Gold Coins of the New Orleans Mint: 1839-1909, Douglas A. Winter describes this particular die marriage of the issue as "rare." PCGS# 8230. NGC ID: 25TK.
