Description
Select Mint State 1852-C Half Eagle
Popular Southern Gold Type Issue
1852-C $5 MS63 NGC. CAC. Variety 1. Thanks to a mintage of
72,574 pieces, generous by Charlotte standards, and the existence
of two distinct hoards of Mint State pieces, the 1852-C is one of
the best choices for the collector seeking a Charlotte half eagle
for a Southern gold type set. This Select example has a typical
appearance for a high-end example of the issue, with blended detail
on the high points from a soft strike but no trace of wear. Faintly
green-gold surfaces laced with orange are lightly abraded with
semireflective luster under a thin layer of patina. A shallow
scrape appears just off the back of Liberty's neck.(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25UB, PCGS# 8251, Greysheet# 9001)
Weight: 8.36 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
