1861 Half Eagle, MS64+
Conditionally Scarce Preferred Date
High-End No Motto Type Coin

1861 $5 MS64+ PCGS. CAC. Always in demand for its status as No Motto Civil War gold, the 1861 Philadelphia five is scarce in high grades despite a 688,150-piece mintage. This high-end near-Gem Uncirculated example with CAC endorsement is sure to attract advanced collectors looking to upgrade this important issue. Smoothly frosted surfaces display a needle-sharp strike and attractive orange accents that embellish the medium-gold color and highlight the coin's gleaming mint luster. Both sides appear on the cusp of an even finer certified grade. Population: 5 in 64+, 10 finer. CAC: 10 in 64, 4 finer (9/22).(Registry values: P3)
