1848-D Five Dollar, VF25
Colorful and Original, CAC

1848-D $5 VF25 PCGS. CAC. Winter 20-L. Ex: The Fairmont Collection. This delightful half eagle from the Dahlonega Mint exhibits original olive-gold surfaces splashed with subtle orange accents. Typical softness shows on Liberty's hair curls, the left obverse stars and denticles, and on the eagle's neck. A planchet void is seen at the base of the eagle's shield (as struck). The devices are attractively bordered with tiny bits of russet matter that attest to its originality. Only 11 Mint State pieces are reported at PCGS (10/25).
