<B>1860-D $5 Medium D MS60 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 38-FF. Mintages of half eagles at Dahlonega fell substantially after 1854, when the San Francisco Mint began to coin California-mined gold. Previously, bullion had often been shipped to the Eastern Seaboard in noncoin form, and a portion of that dramatic inflow of gold ended up in Dahlonega, Georgia. By 1860, however, production of the flagship denomination, the half eagle, amounted to only 14,635 pieces. Among half eagles from the Georgia facility, only the 1859-D and the 1861-D have smaller mintages.<BR> This impressive, shimmering example is well struck aside from minor softness on the eagle's neck, and the apricot-gold surfaces are smooth except for a pair of faint pinscratches from the bust truncation. The reverse is choice for the grade.<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>)
