- 1858 Liberty Head Half Eagle. VF-30 (PCGS). CAC.
Original honey-rose surfaces with most major design elements boldly rendered. One of only 15,136 Philadelphia Mint half eagles of the date produced - the mintage for eagles of this date was just 2,521 pieces, as Philadelphia's coinage presses were kept busy in this year churning out 211,714 double eagles. The 1858 inaugurates a run of low mintage fives from the parent mint that continues through 1860, and market appearances are usually few and far between. Prior to 2020, we last offered a circulation strike 1858 half eagle in 2013, in fact, the intervening seven years seeing several examples of the 1858-C, 1858-D and 1858-S pass through our sales. Clearly this is an underrated issue relative to the more highly regarded mintmarked issues of its era, and the premium CAC-approved specimen offered here represents a fleeting bidding opportunity for the astute gold collector.
CAC Population: 19 in all grades.
