1909-O $5 --Improperly Cleaned--NCS. AU Details. According to Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth: "This is one of the most sought-after issues in the series because of the low mintage and general rarity in any Mint State grade. It has long been considered a key date and is always in feverish demand." This example retains excellent eye appeal and suffers minimal effects from improper cleaning. An attractive khaki-gold coin with numerous small abrasions in the reverse fields and a few wispy hairlines on each side. An affordable example of this important issue.(Registry values: N2998)
