1900-S Half Eagle, MS66
The Finest We Have Ever Offered

1900-S $5 MS66 PCGS. The 1900-S Liberty half eagle is many times rarer than its Philadelphia counterpart. It is only marginally available in MS64, and Gems are rarely offered. In MS66, this example can be considered a Condition Census coin. PCGS lists two pieces in this grade and three finer, a population in the finest grades that is the same as it was the last time we handled this piece nearly a decade ago. We have never offered another comparable or superior example of this date. Vibrant surfaces are largely yellow-gold with occasional peach shadings close to the margins. The smooth cheek of the portrait yields to razor-sharp definition on Liberty's curls. Population: 2 in 66, 3 finer (11/17).
