1843 $5

Description

PCGS 1843 MS 63. While a common issue in lower grades, the 1843 is conditionally rare in MS 63 with only one other piece so graded and that by NGC (4/94) with one coin finer (also NGC). This is a very choice example that is completely detailed in all areas. The surfaces are unusually clean for a coin of this grade with the most obvious mark (and that not really so obvious) being a shallow planchet flake in the right obverse field below the bun of the hair. The obverse fields show innumerable die striations with the resultant semi-prooflikeness on that side; lustrous on the reverse.
