Premium Quality 1850-D Half Eagle 1850-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 28-U. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC. This highly significant offering features one of the finest AU examples of an overlooked rarity in the Dahlonega Mint half eagle series. It is a beautiful coin with richly original color of warm, even honey-gold. Tinges of pale olive are also discernible — very attractive. Both sides are incredibly smooth and blemish free with bold to sharp striking detail to virtually all design elements. This is easily one of the nicest 1850-D fives that your cataloger (JLA) has seen in a professional numismatic career that spans more than two decades, and it will be just right for another advanced Southern gold cabinet. Two of the three die marriages of this issue, Winter 27-U and 28-U, are sometimes designated as Weak D by the certification services since the mintmark was lightly impressed in the reverse die. On the present example the D is a bit soft, especially through its lower half, but it is fully defined and readily evident. CAC Population: 4; 7. There are no Mint State examples approved by this service. PCGS# 8245. NGC ID: 25U3. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
