Perhaps you've never heard of the famous "C" mint, located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Even many coin dealers and serious coin collectors know little about this Eastern branch of the U.S. Mint. In fact, it's one of the best-kept secrets in all of coin collecting! Only the $1, $2.5 and $5 gold coins were minted at the Charlotte Mint.
The 1849-C Liberty Head half eagle is scarce in all grades and is difficult to find in high grades. This specimen is graded in a Mint State 61 condition. Take advantage of the great price on a great coin! |
