- Rare Mint State 1847-C Half Eagle
1847-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC.
A truly superior example of this Charlotte issue that boast superior execution and eye appeal for the assigned grade. Vibrant yellow-gold in hue with scattered areas of deeper honey shades. Lightly reflective in the fields and free from any distracting imperfections. Only 5 have been graded finer by PCGS.
One of 84,151 examples of the date struck, the largest single-year output for half eagles from the Charlotte Mint. However, the vast majority of the issue saw heavy use in commercial venues in and around Charlotte, the end result being many of today's examples are apt to be just VF to EF or so in grade. The Winter reference calls this date "Very rare and undervalued in full Mint State," and our experience backs that up. Perhaps just a dozen distinct specimens survive in Mint State. Only infrequently offered at that level, the present example will definitely cause aficionados and serious collectors of Charlotte Mint coinage to sit up and take notice.
PCGS Population: 5; 5 finer.
PCGS# 8233. NGC ID: 25TN.
