Description

Conditionally Scarce 1835 Classic Five Dollar, MS62 NGC

1835 $5 MS62 NGC. First Head. Breen-6504, McCloskey 1-A, R.3. Warm green-gold color dominates the outward appearance of this satin textured representative. We do note, however, that the color brightens to yellow-gold shades as the coin turns into the light. There is not a single ill-defined feature, and the sharp surfaces, while not abrasion-free, are silent on the subject of sizeable blemishes. The second-year 1835 was produced to the extent of 371,534 pieces. It is the third most common Classic Half Eagle after the 1834 and 1836, but the vast majority of survivors are circulated to one degree or another. This issue is particularly scarce in the finer Mint State grades. Population: 8 in 62, 21 finer (7/02).
