Introducción de monedas

Jeff Garrett:The 1846-C half eagle is a very rare issue in any grade.  Just a few examples of the date are offered at auction each year.  The issue is usually found well worn or damaged—even pleasing Extremely Fine or About Uncirculated coins are quite desirable and difficult to locate.  The 1846-C half eagle is a true rarity in Mint State.  Just a few examples have been graded Uncirculated, and it is doubtful whether all of them merit true Mint State status.  One example has been graded at the gem level; this is possibly the Eliasberg piece, which is an extremely nice coin.  The Milas coin was one of the only other choice examples that the authors have seen.Leer más
