详细说明

1859-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-55 (NGC). This is an uncommonly well produced coin for an issue that is typically seen with a "fuzzy" and noticeably blunt appearance on the reverse. Here we note generally sharp detail to both sides with minimal softness to the eagle. Satiny in texture with a tinge of pale pinkish-rose to otherwise honey-gold patina. From a mintage of 31,847 half eagles produced in Charlotte in 1859, most survivors grade no finer than EF-45, confirming the desirability of this bold Choice About Uncirculated example. PCGS# 8281. NGC ID: 25VC. Click here for certification details from NGC. Additional image by NGC Photo Vision. Learn more at NGCcoin.com
