Description

1884-S Half Eagle, MS64
Only Two Certified Finer

1884-S $5 MS64 NGC. The moderate mintage of 177,000 fails to ensure high grade survivors of this issue, as most of those coins entered circulation. This impressive example has a bold strike with brilliant yellow surfaces. Frosty devices rest on satiny fields with slight reflectivity. A hint of olive toning appears along the borders. A few noticeable reverse marks prevent a higher grade. Census: 20 in 64, 2 finer (12/11).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25XR, PCGS# 8366, Greysheet# 9080)
