- 1856-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. VF-35 (PCGS). CAC. This endearing mid grade example is warmly and evenly toned in medium straw-gold. Pleasingly smooth in hand for the assigned grade with plenty of bolder detail remaining in the more protected areas of the design. An underrated issue among Southern gold coins, the 1856-C vies with the 1839-C and 1860-C as the ninth rarest Charlotte Mint half eagle. Examples are rarer than a mintage of 28,457 pieces might imply, there being no more than 250 to 300 survivors in all grades. With many circulated examples impaired, this problem free and attractively original Choice VF is sure to catch the eye of astute Southern gold enthusiasts. PCGS# 8267. NGC ID: 25UW.
