1909-O $5

Description

1909-O XF 45 Lightly Polished. This example presents a better strike than usual, as well as a bold mintmark, but the reverse shows some light polishing and the area above the eagle's head appears to have been burnished, possibly to remove an old scratch. This date is the second rarest in the series in circulated grades; in the higher mint state grades, it moves into first place.
