Eye-Appealing 1854 Five Dollar, MS63

1854 $5 MS63 NGC. This antebellum issue was produced to the extent of more than 160,000 coins, much lower than contemporaneous issues of the five dollar. Examples today are elusive in Mint State. This Select coin displays brilliant luster over orange-gold, well-struck surfaces. A few long, thin scrapes are scarcely seen without a loupe but prevent an even finer grade. They nonetheless detract little from the excellent eye appeal. Census: 10 in 63, 22 finer (3/10).(Registry values: P5)

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
