This is a truly exceptional GEM 1912 half eagle. Tied for FINEST graded at PCGS with the Simpson coin for top honors, this is a truly remarkable high grade survivor of a mintage of 790,000. First off, this coin sports a stunning golden hue that is kissed with peach, tangerine, and rose accents. Deeply impressed incuse devices show razor sharp definition throughout the design types. A brilliant golden sheen and exquisite luster gleams all over. Some minor scattered ticks and traces of contact can be found, mostly in the dreaded field above the eagle on the reverse. These have little bearing on the eye appeal and are appropriate for the assigned grade. This is a truly exceptional quality and eye appealing GEM! PCGS 4, NGC 1. The most recent sold for $15,600 in April 2021 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $17,500. NONE are finer at PCGS so this coin will find its way into a top ranking PCGS set. Good luck! Cert. Number 4453746 PCGS # 8523.00
