- 1853-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-58 (NGC). This is a remarkably well struck Charlotte Mint half eagle, with the sharp definition waning appreciably only at the eagle's neck, talons, and the hair curls over Liberty's brow. Predominantly light gold in appearance, a few splashes of rose iridescence are noted on the reverse. A shallow planchet void in the field below the eagle's right wing is as made. Ample evidence of a satin to modestly semi-reflective finish is discernible with a light. Despite being one of the more available Charlotte Mint half eagle, the 1853-C is scarce in an absolute sense. Only a few hundred coins are believed extant, and the present example is finer than the typically offered VF or EF. PCGS# 8254. NGC ID: 25UE. Click here for certification details from NGC.
