1860 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-61 (PCGS). Semi-reflectivity in the fields enlivens otherwise frosty surfaces on this delightful half eagle. Handsome pinkish-honey color, a razor sharp strike and freedom from significant marks enhance the technical quality. The 1860 is the last in a short run of low mintage Philadelphia Mint half eagles that commenced with the 1858. Uncirculated survivors from a mintage of 19,763 pieces are few and far between, making this a significant offering that is worthy of serious bidder consideration. From the Fairmont Collection-Hendricks Set.
