Liberty Half Eagles
1859-C $5 -- Cleaning -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. Variety 2. All 1859-C half eagles were struck from the same improperly annealed reverse die, and exhibit blurry definition on the eagle. The present Charlotte example is well struck, given the limitations of the reverse die. The apricot-gold surfaces are mildly glossy and display a smattering of trivial marks.
