Description

Lustrous 1912 Five Dollar, Near-Gem

1912 $5 MS64 PCGS. When examined, the current coin is immediately pleasing to the eye. Satiny luster accentuates red-gold coloration throughout. A few scattered abrasions in the left reverse field are perhaps the grade-limiting factor, as the balance of the coin--including the strike--seems to call to a higher grade. As of (6/08), PCGS has graded a mere 44 examples higher.(Registry values: N2998)
