<B>1852-C $5 MS63 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 18-H. With its ample mintage and above-average surviving population, the 1852-C is a popular half eagle issue for the type collector of branch mint gold. For most coins, even better-grade pieces, eye appeal is a concern, since examples often show weak strikes and numerous heavy marks.<BR> This attractive representative, housed in a prior-generation PCGS holder, is one of the most gorgeous examples available today. The central devices show above-average definition, and the fields show attractive, satiny luster that offers a degree of reflectivity. While a number of light, scattered marks are present on each side, the surfaces have none of the sharp, distracting abrasions that so often appear on examples of this issue. Population: 1 in 63, 4 finer (11/07).<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>)
