1849-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 22-L. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC.A charming example with dominant khaki-gold patina surfaces. Overall definition is suitably bold for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint half eagle, and the appearance is uncommonly original for an early Southern gold coin from any coinage facility. Similar in overall rarity to the 1848-D, the 1849-D is one of the more underrated issues among Dahlonega Mint fives. Mintage: 39,036 pieces, the vast majority of which have long since been lost to commercial use.
