1851-D Liberty Half Eagle, AU55
Seldom Encountered in Finer Grades

1851-D $5 AU55 PCGS. Variety 31-W. The 1851-D Liberty half eagle is much more elusive than its mintage of 62,710 pieces would suggest. This attractive Choice AU specimen exhibits a typical strike for the issue, with a touch of softness on the curls below the coronet and the eagle's legs. Lightly worn and lightly abraded, the still-lustrous orange-gold surfaces add to the considerable eye appeal. Housed in a green label holder. Population: 21 in 55, 10 finer (2/18).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25U7, PCGS# 8248, Greysheet# 8998)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
