I've just acquired this 1869 Liberty Gold Half Eagle PCGS AU-50. Reading Doug Winter's article, https://raregoldcoins.com/blog/2022/3/11/a-dozen-undervalued-liberty-head-half-eagles He states: "The mintage of this date is a paltry 1,760 business strikes. There are an estimated 50-60 known. When available, this date tends to come in grades in the EF45 to AU50 range and virtually every piece I have seen is prooflike, very heavily abraded, and completely stripped due to dipping or more drastic surface alterations." This piece caught my attention, with its clean surfaces and original toning. Perhaps it would CAC or upgrade from its old holder. Whatever the grade, CAC or not, I love it!
