Description

1840 Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-58 (PCGS). CAC.
Frosty honey-orange surfaces support a well executed, overall bold strike. There are no marks worthy of individual attention. The 1840 is a popular early Liberty Head half eagle for better date type purposes. Even so, it is scarce in an absolute sense and is a true rarity in the finer AU grades. High quality offerings such as this do not come along that often.
PCGS# 8194. NGC ID: 25SA.
PCGS Population: 21; 16 finer (MS-65+ finest).
From the Fairmont Collection - CAG Set.

Estimate: $2000
