Description

1847 Five Dollar, MS64+
Among the Finest at NGC
High-Grade No Motto Type Coin

1847 $5 MS64+ NGC. With a mintage of 915,981 coins, the 1847 Philadelphia Mint half eagle is widely regarded as a collectible type coin issue. That is true in most grades through MS63, but it becomes conditionally rare at the near-Gem level. This Plus-graded Choice Uncirculated representative ranks among the finest submissions at NGC. It enjoys radiant mint frost, glowing orange-gold color, and a razor-sharp impression. There is just a hint of softness on the lower curl and the eagle's neck feathers, and trivial chatter on each side. Census: 16 in 64 (4 in 64+, 1 in 64+★ ), 0 finer (9/19).(Registry values: P5)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25TL, PCGS# 8231, Greysheet# 8893)

Weight: 8.36 grams
