Description
Select 1878-S Half Eagle
Only Five Specimens Finer at PCGS
1878-S $5 MS63 PCGS. The 1878-S Liberty half eagle was
produced in substantial quantities, but the issue circulated
heavily and few Mint State specimens survive. Examples in Select

the present coin. This piece exhibits sharply detailed devices,
with vibrant satiny mint luster and attractive greenish-gold
surfaces. Population: 6 in 63, 5 finer (2/11).(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25X6, PCGS# 8347, Greysheet# 9067)
Weight: 8.36 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
