1847-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 19-I. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC. A frosty medium gold example with blended pale olive highlights. This is a sharply struck and pleasingly smooth example with no singularly mentionable marks. The 1847-D is among the more available Dahlonega Mint half eagles and would be just right for a mintmarked gold type set. We caution bidders, however, that most collectors are forced to settle for a VF or low end EF coin, for even AU survivors of marginal quality are elusive. At the AU-50 level and with its originality and strong eye appeal, the present example is a condition rarity of considerable importance. PCGS# 8234. NGC ID: 25TP. CAC Stickered Population: 5; 10. From the Fairmont Collection - Mont Blanc Set.
