Description

1898-S Five Dollar Liberty, MS65
Rare Any Finer

1898-S $5 MS65 NGC. From a mintage of nearly 1.4 million pieces, the 1898-S half eagle is surprisingly elusive at the MS65 grade level, and finer coins are prime condition rarities. This spectacular Gem exhibits sharply detailed design elements throughout, and the well-preserved orange-gold surfaces radiate vibrant mint luster. Eye appeal is outstanding. Census: 11 in 65, 6 finer (3/23).(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YR, PCGS# 8397, Greysheet# 9098)

Weight: 8.36 grams

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
