Description

Memorable 1868 Half Eagle

1868 $5 AU55 NGC. With a paltry 5,700 struck for circulation, it doesn't take a lot of imagination to know that this is a very difficult coin to find in any grade, particularly so in high circulated grades as seen here. Scattered light handling marks can be seen with a loupe, but there are no major distractions. For the numismatist, this coin would make a welcome addition to a specialized collection. Population: 10 in 55, 15 finer (1/05).(#8315) (Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25W5, PCGS# 8315, Greysheet# 8914)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
