1877-S Five Dollar Liberty, AU58
Elusive, Underrated Issue

1877-S $5 AU58 PCGS. Only 26,700 Liberty half eagles were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1877. As might be expected, the 1877-S is difficult to locate in all grades today, but its elusive nature is not appreciated, outside of series specialists. This attractive near-Mint specimen displays just a trace of friction on the high points of the design elements. The lightly abraded orange-gold surfaces retain traces of original mint luster in the sheltered areas. Population: 5 in 58, 4 finer (5/21).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25X3, PCGS# 8344, Greysheet# 9065)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
