- 1854-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 36-AA. Large D. AU-58 (NGC). CAC.
A coin that offers superior quality and exceptional eye appeal for the otherwise relatively obtainable 1854-D half eagle. The surfaces are aglow with bright, frosty luster and vivid deep gold color. A tinge of reddish-apricot iridescence is also evident, providing further visual appeal. Striking detail is essentially full by the standards of the issuing mint, and no major feature is less than sharply defined. Mintmarked gold type collectors would be wise to pursue this offering with vigor and, of course, this coin would do equally well in any high grade set of Dahlonega Mint coinage.
Although unlisted in earlier editions of the Winter reference on this series, 36-AA is now regarded as the most common die pairing of the 1854-D. It is one of the sharp Large D varieties of the issue, sharing its reverse with the 1853-D 35-AA attribution.
