Lot 1984
1846-D/D $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Well struck with much mint luster. High wide protecting rims. Amazing lustrous surfaces for the grade, the time period, and for this Southern mint. Everything about it is alive with rich gold and lovely greenish tint to the brilliance. Nicely struck for the date, the photographs do not lie, with all reverse details present, so we are not hesitant to use the word "full" when describing the strike. Sharply struck 1846-D half eagles are rare. Pop 2; 7 finer; 4 in 61; 1 in 63; 1 in 64; 1 in 66.
Estimated Value $8,500 - 9,500.
