Description

1850-D Half Eagle, AU58+
Rare any Finer

1850-D $5 AU58+ PCGS. Variety 28-V. The low-mintage 1850-D is very scarce, but collectible, in VF and XF grades. Borderline Uncirculated examples are rare, and the present coin is the sole example graded AU58+ by either NGC or PCGS (8/22). Only a handful of Mint State pieces are known. This apricot-gold representative is only lightly abraded, and the strike is above average despite some blending on the forehead curls and lovelock. A small recessed area, likely a mint-made strike-through, is noted behind the eagle's neck. Population: 10 in 58 (1 in 58+), 5 finer (8/22).
