Owner Comments:
Prized 1864 Half Eagle, AU53 NGC. This Civil War-era issue of just 4,170 business strikes is conditionally rare at and above the AU53 level represented by this still-lustrous survivor. Strong striking definition has withstood the coin's modest wear, and while the orange-influenced yellow-gold surfaces show a number of light marks, the overall eye appeal is remarkable for the designation.
