- Dazzling Mint State 1847-D Half Eagle 1847-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 19-I. MS-62 (PCGS). The surfaces of this lovely piece are bright, satiny and a lovely golden-apricot color. The strike is sharp over all features save for the eagle's neck, which is a tad soft with minimal delineation between the individual feathers. None of the abrasions are singularly distracting, the in hand appearance uncommonly smooth at the assigned grade level. Few survivors of this issue have been awarded an MS-62 or finer grade from PCGS or NGC, and this select group comprises the middle to upper reaches of the Condition Census for the issue. By Dahlonega Mint half eagle standards, the 1847-D is a plentiful coin, at least in an absolute sense. The mintage is a respectable 64,405 pieces, and PCGS CoinFactsaccounts for as many as 250 survivors in all grades. It is one of the more readily obtainable D-Mint fives from the 1840s. At the Mint State level, however, the rarity of the 1847-D cannot be overstated. Provenance: From the Augustana Collection. PCGS Population: 7; 2 finer (both MS-63). PCGS# 8234. NGC ID: 25TP.
