Lot Description

Subdued tan-orange color with tinges of pinkish-rose on the reverse, warmer flint gray and powder blue on the obverse. Cleaned at one time, yet free of sizeable or otherwise singularly mentionable marks. The rims are distinct, all major design elements are fully appreciable, and the all important date and mintmark are sharp. Given the ranking of this issue as the third rarest Dahlonega Mint half eagle (per Doug Winter, 2023) this extensively circulated, yet relatively pleasing survivor is sure to appeal to many collectors.
