Description

1849-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 25-S. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC.
A warm and appealing example dressed in even golden-honey. With a bold to sharp strike, traces of frosty luster and a pleasingly smooth appearance, there is much to recommend this handsome piece to discerning Southern gold collectors. The mintage of half eagles at the Dahlonega Mint came in at 39,036 pieces in 1849, of which perhaps a few hundred exist today. Most, of course, are in lower grades than this Choice Extremely Fine example.
PCGS# 8242. NGC ID: 25TX.
From the Fairmont Collection - CAG Set.

Estimate: $3500
