Liberty Half Eagles
1847 $5 MS64 NGC. If the reflective reverse looked like the obverse, this piece would have received a Prooflike designation from NGC. This boldly defined Choice Mint State half eagle exhibits full mirrors on the obverse with excellent field-to-device contrast on both sides. Faint hairlines keep this light yellow-gold beauty from a finer grade. Census: 16 in 64 (3 in 64+, 1 in 64+★), 0 finer (2/17).
