Introducción de monedas

Jeff Garrett:The 1842-D, Large Date, Large Letters is one of the rarest Dahlonega gold coins in high grade.  Most of the coins found of the date are heavily circulated or damaged.  The 1842-D, Large Date, Large Letters half eagle also has one of the lowest overall populations of certified examples.  There are probably fewer than 100 of the variety known in all grades.  Mint State examples of the issue are extremely rare.  Only the Duke’s Creek, the Green Pond, and one found on the SS New York have attained the lofty grade of MS-61.  The SS New York example sold at auction in January, 2010 for $34,500.Leer más
