Select Mint State 1836 Five Dollar

1836 $5 MS63 PCGS. Third Head, Breen-6510, McCloskey 3-C, R.2. The only Third Head die marriage for the date, which lacks the forecurl extension seen on the Second Head. This radiant sun-gold representative is well struck, since only the curl northwest of the ear lacks full definition. The fields provide luster and lack consequential marks. Cartwheel luster dominates the borders and devices, while the open fields are moderately flashy. Although Classic fives are plentiful in VF to XF, Select Mint State examples are undeniably rare, and are subject to formidable demand from gold type collectors. Population: 11 in 63, 18 finer (5/08).
