Description

Delightful 1857-C Half Eagle, Choice AU

1857-C $5 AU55 NGC. Variety 1. The only variety known. Eye-catching luster radiates beneath the yellow-gold patina that envelops both sides. The strike is bold save for a bit of softness on a few star centrils. Scattered abrasions are consistent with the grade, and a distinctive luster graze between stars 11 and 12 is noted for future pedigree purposes. This appealing Choice AU piece would make an excellent C-Mint type coin.(Registry values: P3)
