1860-D $5 Large D MS62 PCGS
<B>1860-D $5 Large D MS62 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 38-EE. Certified prior to PCGS differentiation of the Medium D and Large D varieties, but clearly a Large D based on visual inspection. While the 1860-D half eagle has a small mintage of 14,635 pieces, a substantial certified population is available to collectors, though few coins are so impressively preserved as the present example. Aside from a pair of Choice coins, one each at NGC and PCGS, no finer representatives appear in the combined certified population (1/08). The pale lemon-gold pieces retain vibrant, slightly watery luster, and a copper-rose streak extends from star 4 to Liberty's forehead. Well-defined in the centers, as usual for this issue, though the obverse stars show a degree of softness.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
