Owner's Description

Winter Variety 1, Die State I. This is an uncharacteristically well struck Charlotte half eagle with only slight weakness on Miss Liberty’s curls. Brilliant with satiny, reflective fields and frosty, well defined devices. Both sides have bright yellow-gold surfaces that are aesthetically enhanced by rich green and traces of pale orange. Bowers & Merena 8/09: 4532; Heritage 7/08: 1968.
