1868 $5 PCGS AU58 ex: D.L. Hansen - Liberty Head $5 - Very Scarce P-Mint

Rare P-Mint half eagle from a scant mintage of just 5,700 coins, most of which were actually shipped overseas for commerce. The 1868 is part of a run of rare low mintage business strike Liberty Half Eagles from the Philadelphia Mint that began in 1862 during Civil War. Moderately prooflike fields seeming birth a "chattery" effect, yet the deeper color in the devices creates a fully original appearance. - Liberty Head $5
