Repunched Date Select 1879-S Five

1879-S $5 MS63 NGC. The date is obviously repunched south, visible within the loops of the 8 and 9. A conditionally scarce S-mint issue typically encountered in bagmarked AU grades. The present example is minimally abraded and has good luster. The strike is sharp, as usual for gold coins of the era. Census: 19 in 63, 6 finer (11/09).
