- 1853-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 34-Y. Large D. EF-45 (PCGS). A remarkably choice example of this popular type issue in the Dahlonega Mint half eagle series. Wonderfully original surfaces are dressed in warm honey-olive color. Plenty of soft satin luster remains to surfaces that are exceptionally smooth and free of even trivial distractions. Superior striking quality for the issue with the peripheries quite sharp overall, the central obverse soft, although to no great detriment. With an unusually generous mintage (by Dahlonega Mint standards) of 89,678 pieces, it should perhaps come as no surprise that the 1853-D is the most common half eagle from this coinage facility. Examples in VF and EF are obtainable with relative ease and account for the majority of the 650 to 750 or more survivors. Provenance: From the Augustana Collection. PCGS# 8255. NGC ID: 25UF.
