- Impressive Condition Rarity 1887-S $5 1887-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-65+ (PCGS). CAC. Pretty rose gold toning dominates the complexion, accented by traces of patina at the obverse border. Boldly lustrous with a uniformly satiny texture across all elements. The surfaces remain incredibly untroubled beneath magnification, lacking all but the most trivial ticks. Beautiful to examine in-hand. Survivors from a generous mintage of 1,912,000 pieces are available in grades through MS-63, but any finer and the 1887-S becomes a noteworthy condition rarity. Tied with one other at the MS-65+ level, just a single MS-66 grades higher at PCGS. Notably, neither a 65+ or 66 has made a public auction appearance before. Approval by CAC emphasizes the high quality and surely contributes to the desirability. Sure to be of broad appeal to gold enthusiasts and registry set players alike. PCGS Population: 2; 1 finer (MS-66). PCGS# 8371. NGC ID: 25XW. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
