Description

1916-S Half Eagle, MS64
Challenging Issue in Higher Grades

1916-S $5 MS64 PCGS. The 1916-S five dollar gold piece experiences a significant population decline at this high level. Finer representatives are well-beyond the reach of the typical collector. The obverse is stronger than the reverse on this near-Gem, but both sides show glimmering mint frost and warm orange-gold color. PCGS lists 16 numerically finer grading events (12/24).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 28DY, PCGS# 8532, Greysheet# 9331)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
