Liberty Half Eagles
1859-C $5 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. XF. Variety 2. A butter-gold and lime-green representative. The stars are sharp for the XF level. There are no distracting marks. As invariably encountered for this late Charlotte issue, the eagle is somewhat indistinct because of its improperly prepared reverse die. The strike-through above the eagle's neck is also usual for the '59-C.
