- 1872-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). An absolute and condition rarity for this underrated San Francisco Mint issue. Boldly to sharply defined in all but a few isolated areas, light honey-gold surfaces reveal ample remnants of a satin to semi-reflective finish as the coin dips into a light. With most of the 36,400 half eagles struck in the California branch mint during 1872 lost to the rigors of commerce, even a well worn survivor represents a significant find in today's market. As a PCGS-certified AU the coin offered here would serve as a highlight in an advanced collection of Liberty Head gold coinage. Provenance: From the Blue Ridge Mountains Portfolio. PCGS# 8327. NGC ID: 25WH. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
