Notable Gem 1909 Half Eagle

1909 $5 MS65 PCGS. This highly attractive Gem exhibits vibrant, creamy luster and intricately detailed devices. Lemon-gold and orange-gold elements converge on the shining and carefully preserved surfaces. A magnificent exemplar with elegant eye appeal that is sure to delight the interested bidder.
While the general perception of the 1909 half eagle is that the issue is common, this widely held belief hardly holds true in Choice and better grades. Still, the 1909 Philadelphia, like its Denver counterpart, is more available than its counterparts and is a frequent selection for the type collector. The lovely representative offered here could find a home in a similarly graded high-end assemblage of 20th century gold. PCGS has graded six finer examples (12/07).(Registry values: N4719)
