Choice AU 1875-S Half Eagle
Rare Low-Mintage Issue

1875-S $5 AU55 NGC. From a mintage of just 9,000 pieces, the 1875-S Liberty half eagle is scarce-to-rare in all grades, and high-grade specimens are extremely elusive. This attractive Choice AU example is lightly impressed on the obverse peripheries, but shows bold definition in other areas. The light greenish-gold surfaces retain much original mint luster. Census: 12 in 55, 9 finer (5/12).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25WV, PCGS# 8338, Greysheet# 9061)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
