- 1850-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 28-U. AU-58 (NGC). Satin to semi-reflective, golden-olive surfaces are uncommonly smooth for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint half eagle. The central high points are a bit soft, but otherwise we note bold to sharp striking detail to all design elements. Although not widely recognized as such, the 1850-D is one of the rarest Dahlonega Mint fives. Survivors from a mintage of 43,984 pieces are scarce even in circulated grades, the total extant population on the order of just 125 to 175 coins. Doug Winter (2013) ranks this issue as the fourth rarest Dahlonega Mint half eagle in an absolute sense, and the seventh rarest in grades above Extremely Fine. Provenance: From the Augustana Collection. NGC Census: 16; 4 finer (all MS-61). PCGS# 8245. NGC ID: 25U3. Click here for certification details from NGC.
