1848-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter-1, the only known dies. AU-55 (PCGS). Attractive deep honey color is seen on both sides, accented by plenty of orange-apricot highlights. There is abundant frosty luster as well as 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 Choice About Uncirculated and Mint State grades, at which levels examples are rare. PCGS# 8237. NGC ID: 25TT. PCGS Population: 12; 17 finer, seven of which are Mint State (MS-64+ finest). From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
