Scarce 1883-S Five Dollar, MS63

1883-S $5 MS63 PCGS. CAC. The 1883-S five is an overlooked scarcity in the With Motto series. Even though 83,200 pieces were struck, very few were set aside in the better grades of Uncirculated. The few MS63 coins represent the threshold for most collections as there are only three finer pieces, all certified by NGC as MS64. This orange-gold example has just the faintest tinge of olive around the margins. The striking details are strong but not quite full, and there are numerous, small abrasions scattered over each side that account for the MS63 grade.(Registry values: P3)
