- This minimally circulated survivor shows a typical strike for the issue, the detail otherwise sharp to full with just a touch of softness to the hair curls along Liberty's forehead and over and behind the neck. Ample frosty to modestly semi-prooflike luster remains on both sides of this vivid medium gold example. Faint olive undertones add further appeal. Moderately abraded from a short stint in active circulation, yet free of sizable or individually mentionable blemishes. This scarce die pairing is among the more challenging to locate for the 1836 half eagle. The CC#1 coin is a PCGS MS-64 (as noted by Daryl J. Haynor, 2020), although attractive About Uncirculated examples such as the Virginian Collection specimen offered here are a more realistic option for most Classic Head gold variety enthusiasts.
