- 1851-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 31-W. AU-53 (PCGS). An exciting example of the issue, this is a flashy AU coin with bright honey-gold color and appreciable luster on both sides. The strike is quite soft along Liberty's brow and at the bottom of the eagle, yet bold for most other focal features. Although a mintage of 62,710 pieces is generous for the issuing mint, the 1851-D is scarce and underrated in today's market. According to Winter (2013), this is the fifth rarest of 26 issues in the Dahlonega Mint $5 series. Mint State examples are so rare that they can be counted on one or two hands. About Uncirculated coins are very scarce and represent a significant step up in quality from the VF and EF coins that comprise much of this issue's census. Provenance: From the Augustana Collection. PCGS# 8248. NGC ID: 25U7. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
