Product Details This 1839-D Liberty Head Gold Half Eagle ($5) is a highly coveted historic artifact struck at the iconic Dahlonega Mint during its second year of operation. Featuring Christian Gobrecht's classic 'No Motto' Coronet design, this premier one-year type coin uniquely showcases the 'D' mint mark on the obverse above the date, rather than on the reverse as positioned in subsequent years. Certified by NGC as VF 35 (Very Fine), the piece retains sharp central detail with light, even wear across the major high points and displays attractive, original pre-Civil War gold surfaces. With a low original mintage of just 18,939 pieces and a surviving population estimated in the hundreds, this vintage southern branch-mint classic represents an essential addition for serious collectors of early U.S. gold.
