Description
1834 Classic Half Eagle, MS62
Plain 4, Rare HM-4 Variety
1834 $5 Plain 4, HM-4, High R.5, MS62 PCGS. HM-4 is the
rarest 1834 Classic half eagle variety. It is rarer than the
celebrated Crosslet 4 HM-9. Haynor estimates that only 2% of the
issue is HM-4. The present coin is the second-finest example we
have every offered, trailing the MS64+ PCGS coin plated at PCGS
Coin Facts that appeared in our November 2006, January 2011, and
April 2013 Signatures. The present lot is the only other Mint State
HM-4 we have encountered, and it is a delightful apricot-gold coin
that shows only scattered light contact. Minor blending of
impression is noted on the BER in LIBERTY and the curls near the
ear.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# E2KE, Variety PCGS# 765194, Base PCGS# 8171, GSID# 376231)
