Description
1838-D Five Dollar, HM-1, AU53
Single-Year Dahlonega Type Coin
1838-D $5 HM-1, R.3, AU53 NGC. The 1838-D half eagle was the
only Dahlonega issue of any denomination struck during the first
year of the facility's operation. Just one die pair struck the
issue, identified by the A in STATES entered high, and the D
mintmark centered above the 3 in the date, The mintage was just
20,583 pieces, and problem-free AU examples are desirable. The
1838-D is a single-year Dahlonega type coin, since the Liberty
design was introduced in 1839. The present well-defined
caramel-gold specimen displays bright luster throughout Liberty's
curls and the eagle's plumage. Marks are relatively few, though we
note a line near star 9, and unobtrusive contact on the upper
reverse field.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# E2MU, Variety PCGS# 765270, Base PCGS# 8178, GSID# 226366)
