1850-D Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter 28-U. AU-50 (PCGS).Handsome olive-orange surfaces are very smooth for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint half eagle. The central high points are a bit soft, but otherwise we note bold to sharp striking detail in the context of the assigned grade. The D mintmark is a tad soft, typical of this reverse die, but not enough to classify this piece as a Weak D. Elusive in all grades due to extensive circulation, the 1850-D half eagle is typically represented by well worn and often impaired survivors. In About Uncirculated preservation this is one of the finer circulated examples from a mintage of 43,984 pieces.PCGS# 8245. NGC ID: 25U3.From the Fairmont Collection - CAG Set.
