1842-C Half Eagle, Sharp XF45
Large Date Variant

1842-C $5 Large Date XF45 PCGS. Variety 1. The 1842-C half eagle is scarce, and the small population is split between two distinct varieties: Large Date and Small Date. This piece represents the more available Large Date variant, which survives to the extent of 110-140 pieces, per Doug Winter. The strike is sharp, and the rich orange-gold surfaces show expected light chatter without distracting abrasions. Very little wear is present. Housed in a green label holder.
