Lustrous Gem 1897 Liberty Half Eagle

1897 $5 MS65 NGC. Below the MS65 grade level, the 1897 is well represented in the NGC and PCGS population reports. Gems are, however, very scarce with accurately graded pieces few and far between. With coruscant mint frost and a relative lack of abrasions, the surfaces are typically attractive for the grade. Both sides are draped in soft reddish-golden color that only enhances the already impressive eye appeal. A single abrasion is reported on Liberty's chin. Census: 71 in 65, 7 finer (12/05).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YM, PCGS# 8394, Greysheet# 8943)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
