1842-D $5 Large Date VF35 NGC
<B>1842-D $5 Large Date VF35 NGC.</B></I> Ex: Richmond Collection. Variety 9-G. The two varieties of 1842-D half eagles are known as the Large Date and Small Date, but perhaps of greater numismatic significance, the reverses differ as well. The Small Date variety has a Small Letters reverse, while the Large Date features a more crowded Large Letters reverse. Yellow-gold and apricot surfaces display a faint green tint, and are well defined. A couple of moderate contact marks are visible on the obverse, and another on the lower reverse. One of the rarest Dahlonega gold coins.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
