Description

1842-C Half Eagle, MS60
Conditionally Rare Large Date Coin

1842-C $5 Large Date MS60 NGC. Variety 1. The Large Date 1842-C half eagle is often overshadowed by the rarity of its Small Date counterpart, although this issue is itself scarce in all grades with likely fewer than 140 pieces known. Uncirculated examples are major rarities. This piece displays sharp stars and central devices with satiny green-gold luster. Light, scattered abrasions determine the grade. Census: 5 in 60, 9 finer (10/16).
