Highlights:
Each 1848 Pre-33 $5 Liberty Gold Half Eagle coin comes with an XF45 certification, indicating its higher condition on the XF scale. These coins have light wear patterns only on the highest relief points, with traces of the original mint luster still visible.
The Fairmont Collection is a treasure trove of historic US gold coins that were found in European bank vaults and brought back to the United States in the 2010s. Among these, only a few hundred earned Mint State grades, making them incredibly rare and sought after.
Obverse
On the obverse of these 1848 Liberty Gold Half Eagle Coins, you’ll find the elegant Lady Liberty in left-profile relief. This design was created in 1838 by Christian Gobrecht.
Reverse
As you turn the 1848 $5 Liberty Gold Half Eagle Coin, the reverse displays the heraldic eagle, clutching the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace while supporting a small US national shield.
History
