Attractive MS63 1893-O Five Dollar

1893-O $5 MS63 NGC. Motto New Orleans half eagles were struck for only three years, from 1892 to 1894. Southern gold type collectors tend to select the 1893-O, since it has a reasonable mintage of 110,000 pieces. But by comparison, the Philadelphia Mint churned out more than 1.5 million pieces in 1893. This is a lustrous and suitably struck example, uncommonly smooth save for a small reverse rim nick at 4 o'clock. Census: 10 in 63, 2 finer (4/08).(Registry values: P3)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YC, PCGS# 8385, Greysheet# 9091)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
