1839-C $5
SKU: 52687312
The 1839-C $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle from the historic Charlotte Mint is a coveted early-issue Southern gold rarity, offered here in PCGS AU50 with exceptional collector provenance from the James A. Stack Sr. Collection. Struck at America’s first branch mint dedicated to gold coinage, this half eagle represents a pivotal era when locally mined Southern gold fueled U.S. commerce and expansion.
"Key Highlights"
Date and mint: 1839-C, Charlotte Mint
Denomination and type: $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle
Certified grade: PCGS AU50
Certification number: 52687312
Provenance: James A. Stack Sr. Collection
"Historical Importance"
Charlotte Mint half eagles are foundational issues in the U.S. gold series, prized for their regional identity and enduring scarcity. The 1839-C is particularly desirable as an early Charlotte half eagle, reflecting the mint’s formative period and the challenges of producing gold coinage on the frontier of American industry.
"Condition and Eye Appeal"
Graded AU50, this coin retains strong design detail with the honest circulation character expected of Charlotte gold. Expect attractive, natural gold coloration with warm yellow-gold tones and subtle deeper honey highlights, complemented by lightly worn high points and pleasing overall definition. The surfaces exhibit the look collectors seek in early branch-mint gold: original character, balanced wear, and strong visual presence.

Charlotte Mint and Southern gold specialists
Liberty Head half eagle type collectors seeking a distinctive branch-mint example
Provenance-focused buyers who value the legacy of the James A. Stack Sr. Collection
A standout addition to any U.S. gold collection with historical depth and long-term desirability
