Description
Many times rarer than its Philadelphia Mint counterpart, this turn of the century S-Mint Half Eagle is a noteworthy offering, indeed. Gem UNC pieces are seldom seen in auction, but in MS66, the coin becomes something of legend. A Condition Census top five coin. PCGS has graded an essentially perfect MS69 example, but no one has laid eyes on it in nearly two decades. A superior example of this date that should garner tons of interest from the collecting community. Featuring vibrant honey-gold surfaces and silky mint bloom, the surfaces are satiny in texture and boasting full details. Obviously well taken care of, this may be the finest to hit the market for many more years to come. - Liberty Head $5
