1859-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. Only 31,847 minted. Well struck and untoned. Pop 28; 12 finer. (PCGS # 8281) .

The strike is about as sharp as one could realistically expect for a gold coin from this coinage facility. The reverse tends to be weaker on these late-date half eagles, possibly from overworking the dies.
Estimated Value $7,000 - 8,000.
Ex Richmond Collection.


 
Unsold
