fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3744 Posts	Posted 11/26/2020 4:37 pm Very nice Charlotte! It has the typical soft Charlotte central device strike (noticeable on LIBERTY), but is unusually well preserved. There is only a trace of circulation on this one, and not nearly as much chatter as I would expect. The obverse is especially nice. Very few slab over AU-53, but this looks like one of the few. Add me to the AU-55 parade, and a bean on this wouldn't surprise me. In this market, I have no idea on the price. The last 1847-C half eagle I handled was several years ago, and it was a well-loved VF. I know that AU and up are scarce enough that they trend closer to retail than Greysheet.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18932 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 09:19 am i think ignoring all the bangs, nicks and abrasions the details of the coin point to AU58 but I gotta net it down to AU55.trurview tends to enhance any marks Report this Post to the Staff
jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4707 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 4:36 pm The answer is AU-55. Price paid at auction $3,508 including buyers fee. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21792 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 5:03 pm Should expect to find more luster in an AU-55 than shown, doesn't show very well in this case, but I think that is due to the photography. Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 12:16 pm Looks correctly graded. The price realized probably didn't make the seller happy. Good acquisition. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
