Description

1868 Half Eagle, AU55
Original, White-Gold Example

1868 $5 AU55 NGC. White-gold color dominates moderately abraded surfaces and moderately struck devices. This issue was part of the low mintage string of Philadelphia dates that extended almost uninterrupted from the latter half of the Civil War through 1877, and production only amounted to 5,700 half eagles in 1868. This date is a serious conditional rarity, with only eight Mint State certifications between PCGS and NGC, making original AU examples like the present offering an especially important opportunity.(Registry values: P3)
