Description

Rare, High-Grade Small D 1843-D Five Dollar, MS61

1843-D $5 Small D MS61 PCGS. CAC. Variety 10-G. Mislabeled on the insert as a Medium D. The position of the mintmark is diagnostic, if not the size. The leftmost side of the serif of the D is positioned over the center of the left serif of the V. The Small D is notably scarcer than its Medium D counterpart. As such, this piece is tied with several others at the lower end of the Condition Census for the date in general, and one of the finer Small D fives known. In general, the 1843-D is one of the more available D-mint fives with a mintage of 98,452 pieces. It is also one of the better struck dates, which is abundantly evident on this sharp example. The surfaces are bright green-gold with a significant amount of yellow. There are several field marks on each side.(Registry values: P3)
