<B>1860-C $5 MS62 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 28-M. Like many examples of this issue--with the lowest mintage of any C-mint half eagle since 1846--the obverse shows many parallel die striations. There is an apparent planchet flaw running through star 2 that appears to be of Mint origin, and it has since toned over in a deep orange color. The protected areas around the devices show similar coloration, and despite the presence of numerous tiny contact marks, good luster and a decent strike contribute much to the eye appeal. The eagle on the reverse is fairly mushy, as always, a factor that is due to extensive die rust rather than strike deficiency. Population: 3 in 62, 2 finer (3/08).<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>)
