Owner Comments:

This is a nice example of the only Classic Head half eagle produced at the Dahlonega mint. It has yellow-orange surfaces with a fair amount of luster remaining and nice original surfaces. The devices are well-defined and it has surprisingly few marks.
A duplicate of this year is my PCGS AU55 from the North Georgia Collection. It has beautiful crusty surfaces.
