Vibrant 1893-S Gem Five Dollar
A Major Condition Rarity

1893-S $5 MS65 NGC. This flashy Gem is tied for the finest certified example for the date and mint at NGC, with only one finer coin (a PCGS MS66). While a common date in lower grades, the 1893-S becomes a major condition rarity at the Gem level. This lovely example displays excellent striking strength on each side, with sharpness evident throughout. The surfaces are boldly lustrous with vibrant golden frost dripping from each side. No mentionable abrasions are present, although a few tiny surface ticks that are within the qualifications for the Gem grade are present under close inspection. This highly attractive Gem is destined for the finest of collections.(Registry values: P3)
