Auction 344 | Lot 6221 » Half Eagles » Liberty Half Eagles
1869-S $5 MS62 PCGS. Even though 31,000 pieces were struck of this issue, attrition must have taken a heavy toll as '69-S fives are seldom located above VF condition. Mint State pieces are of the highest order of rarity with only two pieces certified by both of the major services. This is the finest example known. The surfaces are covered with soft mint frost and the orange-gold color of the coin also displays an accent of lilac patina on the obverse. A bit irregularly struck with the most noticeable areas of softness on the curls on Liberty's hair over her face, the eagle's neck, and the fletchings on the upper arrow. This is a significant opportunity for the collector of rare date gold to acquire the finest known example of this rare issue. (PCGS# 8318)

Auction 226 | Lot 7669 » Half Eagles » Liberty Half Eagles
1869-S $5 MS 61 NGC. This is the lone certified Uncirculated example of this long underappreciated condition rarity, and quite possibly the finest known '69-S half eagle. The mintage of this issue is a comparatively high 31,000 pieces, but like virtually all of its contemporary five dollar issues, precious few were spared from commerce. This piece has a few bothersome abrasions around Liberty's mouth and the surfaces display deep reddish-gold coloration overall. The eagle's neck and shield are typically weak, and the pint-sized mintmark is a trifle blunt as well. Population: 1 in 61, none finer (2/00). (PCGS# 8318)

1869-S AU 55 NGC. A scarce S-mint half eagle that is elusive above XF. This is a softly struck coin (on the reverse) that still retains portions of mint luster. There is one notable abrasion on the obverse: a curving mark in the left field. Subdued golden appearance. (PCGS# 8318)

1869-S $5 AU58 NGC. A significant condition rarity, most extant 1869-S Fives grade no finer than VF. Warm golden-rose accents dance across the otherwise yellow-gold surfaces of this Condition Census survivor. There is some softness of detail over the first few obverse stars and the central highpoints, but the overall definition is appreciably bold. The mintmark, which is often indistinct on '69-S Half Eagles, is readily evident, as are traces of original luster in the more protected areas around the devices. The scattered handling marks include only a few worthwhile pedigree markers: a reeding mark in the left reverse field at the end of the olive branch, and a group of staccato-like abrasions in the field below the eagle's beak.

1869-S $5 AU53 NGC. The 1869-S is scarcer than suggested by its mintage of 31,000 pieces, since the issue was struck before foreign bullion exports became commonplace. This bright yellow-gold representative has its share of small marks, but none require individual mention. Moderate softness on Liberty's curls and the eagle's neck is typical of the era. Census: 8 in 53, 20 finer (7/06). (PCGS# 8318)

1869-S $5 AU53 PCGS. The 1869-S is much more difficult to locate above the VF grade level than its limited mintage of 31,000 pieces might suggest. While the typically encountered survivor is well worn, this lightly colored, reddish-gold example shows moderate evidence of wear. The surfaces are typically abraded for a circulated gold coin from the frontier era, and the strike is somewhat soft over some of the star centrils and neck feathers. This issue is similar in overall rarity to the 1868-S. Population: 6 in 53, 4 finer (11/05). (PCGS# 8318)
