Not Sold Description
Highly Desirable Gem 1893-S Half Eagle
1893-S $5 MS65 PCGS. The typical 1893-S shows numerous abrasions, but this piece is virtually devoid of any marks. There are just a few nearly microscopic handling marks. The strike is razor-sharp save for some minor softness on the hair above Liberty's forehead. Flashy luster increases the appeal of this handsome specimen. A connoisseur will appreciate the rarity of a Gem 1893-S five. Population: 2 in 65, 1 finer (7/10).(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YD, PCGS# 8386, GSID# 9092)
