Important 1861-C Half Eagle 1861-C Liberty Head Half Eagle. Winter. AU-55 (PCGS). Die State II. Offered is a lovely Choice AU survivor of a rare and historic Southern gold issue. Boldly to sharply struck throughout the design, the more protected elements of Liberty's portrait and the eagle offer impressively full detail. Handsome honey-orange gold color blends with nearly complete luster in a frosty, modestly semi-reflective finish. Most marks are trivial on surfaces that present as pleasingly smooth during in-hand viewing. The Charlotte Mint half eagle series passed into history in 1861 with a mintage of just 6,879 pieces. Of this total, 887 pieces are believed to have been struck in May of that year under the authority of the Confederate States of America. A middle die state example, the present coin was likely struck while the facility remained under Federal control, although there is no way of knowing for sure. The 1861-C is the eighth rarest of 24 dates in the Charlotte Mint half eagle series, there being only 200 or so coins extant in all grades. This PCGS-certified Choice About Uncirculated example is far finer than most and has much to offer advanced Southern gold enthusiasts.
