- 1839 Liberty Half Eagle. MS-62 (NGC). A frosty and lustrous yellow-gold specimen with strong unbroken luster on the high points, and with a trace of olive iridescence here and there. The satiny fields are faintly reflective in places, and bold mint frost engages the protected areas. A sharp and appealing example of the date, the first in Christian Gobrecht's Liberty half eagle design type. Magnified examination reveals repunching at the base of the E in LIBERTY and two raised die lumps on Liberty's neck. Choice for the grade with far fewer surface disturbances than typically encountered at MS-62.
