Description
The Large Date 1846 half eagle is more plentiful than its Small Date counterpart, but the difference is of little consequence in light of the fact that the Philadelphia issue as a whole is rarely seen in Mint State. This Select Uncirculated representative is among the finer-known examples of the 1846 half eagle. The strike is bold throughout. The fields show semi proof-like mirroring and the surfaces are aglow with warm honey and copper-gold hues.
