SCARCE NGC MS63 1856 HALF EAGLE
As evidenced that just a single MS63 example of this date has traded at auction since mid-2020 (an NGC coin that brought $6,300 as Heritage 5/2023: 5118), the 1856 is very scarce in this grade and rare finer. Not to mention pricey as a nice MS64 will likely cost you 2x what this MS63 is selling for; that is if you can even find one.
Frosty and toned to a pale orange-gold, this piece is really nice save for a few light marks in front of the neck of Liberty.
