1867 $5 MS (PCGS#8313)

August 2023 Global Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

详细说明: 1867 Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-50+ (PCGS). CAC. The offered 1867 half eagle is a rarity from the early Motto Liberty Head half eagle series. Sharply defined with vivid honey-rose color, both sides also show abundant frosty to modestly semi-reflective luster. Produced in nearly identical numbers (6,870 vs. 6,700 circulation strikes), the 1867 is equally as elusive as the 1866. Fewer than 100 survivors are known, most of which are in grades such as Fine or VF. Even the specimen in the Smithsonian Institution's National Numismatic Collection has been graded EF-45 by gold experts Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth (2008). With only a handful of Uncirculated coins certified, this solidly graded and visually appealing AU example would serve as a highlight in any advanced gold cabinet. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - Rhone Set. PCGS Population: 1; 27 finer, seven of which are Mint State (MS-64 finest). CAC Stickered Population: 10 in all grades (AU-58 highest graded). PCGS# 8313. NGC ID: 25W3. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
