1875-S $5

Description

1875-S AU 50. With an original mintage of only 9,000 pieces, this date is considered virtually unattainable in grades above XF, with the average being VG to VF. This specimen is well struck, with the diagnostic weakness of the bottom of the ribbon above the eagle. It displays a soft, rose-golden patina, and the surfaces show almost no detracting marks or abrasions. Trends $3,250 in XF 40 and no value is listed above that to further attest to this coin's rarity.
