1866-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. Motto. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. Offered is a high Condition Census example of this extraordinary rarity among 1860s half eagles, only the third Mint State 1866-S Motto confirmed in the modern numismatic market. It is a beautiful coin with quality and eye appeal that are both superior for the assigned grade. Lustrous and frosty, both sides display attractively original, rich honey-orange and rose-gold colors. The strike is virtually full, and there are remarkably few marks, certainly none that are worthy of attention.<p>Just 34,920 coins were struck of this historic Liberty Head half eagle, the first from the West Coast facility with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on a scroll in the upper reverse field. Thanks to the rigors of commerce, only a tiny number survive today, with <em>PCGS CoinFacts</em> accounting for fewer than 100 in all grades. Prior to publication of the 2008 edition of the Garrett-Guth encyclopedia on U.S. gold coinage, this issue was unknown in Mint State. Around that time NGC certified an example as MS-61, sold as lot 3272 in Heritages May 2008 Long Beach Signature Auction. That coin appears to have since been crossed to PCGS MS-61, although to date it has not been approved by CAC.<p>The Fairmont-Hendricks specimen that realized $38,400 in our Spring 2022 Auction was the second 1866-S Motto to have been certified as Mint State. It is graded MS-60, again without CAC approval. Its counterpart from the JBR Set, offered here, is the latest newcomer to the Condition Census for the issue, where it is ranked as CC#1 as the only Mint State example to have received CAC approval. A rare and significant bidding opportunity for half eagle collectors, this coin belongs in another world class cabinet of Liberty Head coinage. PCGS# 8312. NGC ID: 25W2. PCGS Population: 2; 0 finer.<p>CAC Population: just 1 in all Mint State grades. From the Fairmont Collection - JBR Set.
