Finest Known
This issue is among the most often seen of Dahlonega Mint half eagles, and it is frequently selected by persons desiring just a single coin to represent that southern mint. The Duke's Creek specimen is the finest example graded by NGC (7-12), and it is a coin of nearly unparalleled beauty among D-Mint gold. Fully struck and entirely untoned, it exhibits dazzling luster that combines richly frosted textures with semi-proof like brilliance.
