- 1857-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 41-HH. AU-55 (PCGS). CAC.
This attractive example displays richly original color in a blend of medium olive and dominant honey-orange. Lustrous for the grade with a softly frosted texture, the surfaces are remarkably well composed for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint $5. Well struck overall with just a touch of characteristic softness to the central high points. The 1857-D has a mintage of 17,046 pieces, survivors of which are among the scarcest late date Dahlonega Mint half eagles. Solidly in the Choice AU category and undeniably original, the present example is rare from a condition standpoint. It would be a great choice for an advanced Southern gold cabinet or Liberty Head five-dollar set.
Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set.
PCGS Population: 15; 29 finer, just 12 of which are Mint State (MS-63 finest).
