1858 Five Dollar, MS64
Low-Mintage No Motto Issue

1858 $5 MS64 PCGS. A rare issue and the first year in a twenty-year run of scarce, low mintage half eagles from the Philadelphia Mint. The mintage of this difficult No Motto five dollar was a mere 15,136 pieces and it is very elusive in all grades, but especially so in mint condition. This is a clean, well-balanced coin that is sharply defined in all areas and shows light reddish color on each side. Noticeable striations in the obverse fields are indicative of an early die state.
