1843-D Medium D Half Eagle
Appealing and Sharply Struck

1843-D $5 Medium D Genuine PCGS. Variety 10-H. The PCGS number ending in .92 suggests Cleaning as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of an Uncirculated specimen that has been cleaned. The Variety 10-H pairing is the only one known for the Medium D. The line of three small die lumps between the first two stars is diagnostic. The yellow-gold surfaces of this coin are perhaps a bit overbright, but the excellent strike and much remaining eye appeal more than compensate. The reverse is relatively abrasion-free, while the obverse shows only a few light scrapes and contact marks.

Note for clients in the European Union: This lot is considered by the European Union to be “investment gold”. We believe that it meets the criteria established in Article 344(1), point (2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC and thus should be exempt from import VAT regardless of the selling price. Any questions or concerns about VAT should be addressed to your accountant or local tax authority.
