Description

1858-D Five Dollar, MS62+
Low-Mintage Dahlonega Issue

1858-D $5 MS62+ NGC. Variety 43-HH. By 1858, the Georgian gold fields were largely played out, and West Coast bullion was predominantly coined at San Francisco. Thus, the 1858-D half eagle has a mintage of only 15,362 pieces. Most survivors are in VF to AU grades. Mint State pieces are rarities, and subject to strong demand from Southern gold collectors. The present sun-gold example exhibits a sharp strike uncharacteristic of the remote and underequipped Dahlonega facility. Luster dominates the borders and devices, and none of the distributed small marks are of singular significance.(Registry values: P3)
