详细说明

Exceptional Choice AU preservation for both the type and the issue, this handsome, sharply struck example exhibits attractively original color in deep orange-olive. Essentially full luster remains, the texture frosty and undisturbed by significant marks. Although not quite as rare as its identically dated Large Letters counterpart, the 1842 Small Letters is a scarce and underrated half eagle in all grades. With most survivors well worn, if not also impaired, this minimally circulated example with coveted CAC approval is a noteworthy condition rarity that represents a particularly significant find for the advanced gold collector.
