- 1879-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-62+ (PCGS). CAC. Satin to softly frosted luster flows over both sides of this smooth and inviting BU example. Most design elements are boldly to sharply struck, the entire package dressed in attractively original patina of medium rose-gold. Keeping pace with the main coinage facility in Philadelphia, the San Francisco Mint also continued to increase half eagle production through 1879 with a delivery of 426,200 coins for the year. Although fairly plentiful in circulated grades, Uncirculated survivors are scarce, especially above the basal MS-62 level, as here. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection. PCGS# 8350. NGC ID: 25X9.
