Description

Pleasing AU58 1850-D Half Eagle

1850-D $5 AU58 NGC. Variety 24-P. The high date has a 1 that meets the bust truncation. The weak D reverse is used with both the 23-O and 24-P reverses and associated with the heavy peripheral die cracks on the reverse that appear on this specimen and others. This near-Mint State coin shows pleasing orange-gold coloration with good luster and a bold strike, save for some of the hair curls in the centers. The 1850-D is an issue that is seldom seen in Mint State, despite a mintage of 43,900 pieces. Census: 24 in 58, 4 finer (3/10).(Registry values: P3)
