Description
1838-D Five Dollar, HM-1, XF45
First Dahlonega Issue
1838-D $5 HM-1, R.3, XF45 PCGS. CAC. The first-year
Dahlonega half eagle has a mintage of only 20,583 pieces and was
struck from a single die pair. The 1839-D is a Liberty Head issue,
thus the 1838-D is essential for the Southern gold type collector.
This olive-gold representative displays pockets of luster within
the curls and plumage. Traces of dirt within the design recesses of
both sides confirm the originality. Marks are minor for the XF45
level, and only a thin line below the ES in STATES is worthy of
mention. CAC is stingy regarding this issue, with just 30 examples
confirmed in all grades. The combined NGC and PCGS census at XF45
is 61 pieces, yet only three coins in that grade display a CAC
green seal (3/22).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# E2MU, Variety PCGS# 765270, Base PCGS# 8178, GSID# 226366)
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
