Liberty Half Eagles
1845-O $5 MS62 PCGS. CAC. Variety 1. The only known die pair, offered here in an early die state with the 18 clearly repunched, and distinct raised die lines in the narrow space between the tops of AMERICA and the border. PCGS has only certified seven Mint State examples of this issue, all in grades of MS61, 62, and 63. This brilliant yellow-gold example features a good strike and frosty mint luster. Scattered grade-limiting marks are mostly visible only with magnification, and fail to diminish the excellent eye appeal. We have only sold one MS62 example since the beginning of our Permanent Auction Archives in 1993, and have never sold a finer piece. Population: 3 in 62, 2 finer. CAC: 2 in 62, 1 finer (11/16).
