Description

1846-D/D Half Eagle, AU55
Widely Repunched Mintmark

1846-D/D $5 AU55 PCGS. CAC. Variety 16-J. The 1846-D/D half eagle is the most dramatic die variety issued by the Dahlonega Mint. The mintmark was initially entered much too high and at an angle. The mintmark was added again, in the proper position. The 1846-D/D is known with two obverses, the Low Date Variety 16-J and the High Date Variety 17-J. They are similar in rarity. The present well-struck example exhibits minimally marked caramel-gold surfaces. Luster dominates design elements. Population: 29 in 55, 31 finer. CAC: 5 in 55, 2 finer (8/23).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25TH, PCGS# 8229, Greysheet# 8982)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
