PCGS/CAC EF40 1855-C HALF EAGLE
While it get little date premium in this grade, the 1855-C is much scarcer than the common date 1852-C and 1853-C half eagles. It is not often seen with natural color and choice surfaces.
This piece is uncommonly lustrous for the assigned grade and it is likely in a 40 holder (and not a 45 or 50 holder) due to some weakness of strike. The nominally abraded surfaces are toned in pale lemon-gold hues and some dirt clings to the recesses.
Only one PCGS EF40 1855-C half eagle has sold at auction in over a decade and it was a non-CAC piece which realized $2,115 in 2013.
CAC has approved this one coin in EF40 with seven finer.
