1848-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. EF-40 (PCGS). CAC. Attractive deep honey color is seen on both sides, accented by plenty of reddish-orange highlights. There is significant frosty luster as well as bold to sharp striking detail. A scarcer Charlotte Mint gold issue, the 1848-C half eagle is much more elusive than a mintage of 64,472 pieces might imply, especially in problem free and attractive preservation, as here. PCGS# 8237. NGC ID: 25TT. From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set.
