1878-S MS 64 PCGS. While not as scarce as earlier S-mint half eagles, the '78-S is quite a challenge in mint condition. This is one of the finest examples known. It is the only MS 64 certified by PCGS, and NGC has only graded two. None are finer by either service. This is an exceptionally attractive coin that is made so for two reasons. First, the fields have a bright semi-prooflikeness that enlivens the overall appearance. Second, the coin is accented by rich reddish-coppery patina that surrounds the perimeter of each side and provides a darker frame for the light interior spaces. Fully struck with no mentionable marks. (PCGS# 8347)

1878-S MS 63 PCGS. While not as scarce as earlier S-mint half eagles, the '78-S is quite a challenge in mint condition. This is one of the finest examples known being the only MS 63 certified by PCGS, with one MS 64 higher (10/95). An exceptionally attractive coin, the fields have a bright semi-prooflikeness that enlivens the overall appearance. Also, the coin is accented by rich reddish-coppery patina that surrounds the perimeter of each side and provides a darker frame for the light interior spaces. Fully struck with a few tiny contact marks and a small planchet flake on the reverse. (PCGS# 8347)

1878-S MS 64 NGC. Although less rare than the other S-mint half eagles from the 1870s, the 1878-S is an elusive coin in Mint State that is decidedly rare at the MS 64 level. Fully struck in all areas, the bright surfaces are remarkably clean for the grade and modestly prooflike in appearance. Copper-gold in color, this coin is one of only 5 examples to receive an MS 64 grade from NGC and PCGS combined and it is bettered by none. (PCGS# 8347)

1878-S $5 MS63 PCGS. While scarce in the lower grades of Uncirculated, the 1878-S can be located with some persistence in MS60 to MS62 condition. However, there is a sharp dropoff in availability at the MS63 level with only 10 coins certified as such by the two major services, and five finer (3/06). This is a sharply struck coin that displays strong mint luster with a noticeable overlay of reddish patina. Lightly marked for an MS63. (PCGS# 8347)

1878-S $5 MS63 PCGS. The '78-S Half Eagle can be located without too much difficulty at the AU grade level, but the supply is greatly diminished in Mint State and Select or better pieces such as this are rarely offered. Both sides of this well struck, satiny example are draped in reddish patina and abrasions are minimal. A pinscratch between stars 2 and 3 is arguably the most mentionable distraction. Population: 5 in 63, 1 finer (11/04).
Ex: Superior (8/02), lot 1833.
