- Lovely AU 1838-D Half Eagle
Historic Dahlonega Mint Issue
1838-D Classic Head Half Eagle. HM-1, Winter 1-A, the only known dies. Rarity-3. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC.
From the Dahlonega Mint's first coinage issue comes this inviting, thoroughly PQ half eagle at the AU-50 grade level. Bathed in a bold blend of deep orange-gold and lighter pinkish-rose colors, the surfaces retain appreciable satin luster that is brightest in the protected areas around and among the design elements. Those same design elements are well struck in general and mostly sharp, mentionable softness being confined to the stars around the obverse periphery. Free of troublesome marks with a pleasingly smooth appearance in hand, this is a fully choice example for the grade that is sure to draw strong bids from discerning Southern gold collectors.
CAC Population: 13; in all AU grades.
PCGS# 8178. NGC ID: 25S6.
