Description

1916-S 5C MS65 PCGS. A frosty and lustrous Gem with a trace of golden toning around the periphery. This interesting example shows a pronounced depression around the lower rim of the reverse (as made) and the hind leg of the bison is faded. Close inspection with a loupe shows a couple tiny flecks and abrasions, but they do not affect the great eye appeal. It is nearly impossible to find a 1916-S graded finer than the present piece.
