1847 Liberty Half Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). CAC.;Satin luster mingles with warm deep gold patina on both sides of this lovely Mint State 1847 half eagle. Otherwise boldly defined, the strike is a bit soft in the centers, affecting the hair curls over Libertys brow and the eagles neck and leg feathers. The 1847 is the most available 1840s half eagle in terms of total number of coins known, but it remains scarce to rare in all Mint State grades. The coin offered here would do equally well in a high grade half eagle set or advanced type set.;
