Description

Outstanding 1844-O Half Eagle, MS63

1844-O $5 MS63 NGC. The 1844-O five offered here is well-struck, with just the slightest weakness on the curls as often seen with this issue. The surfaces have minimal abrasions for the grade, none of which are individually distracting. The frosty mint luster of the devices underscores the bright, orange-gold color of the fields. This coin combines excellent eye appeal, condition rarity, and the cachet of the old Southern mint. A great opportunity for both the type collector and specialist. Census: 9 in 63, 6 finer (6/09).(Registry values: P5)
