1901-S Liberty Half Eagle, MS67+
Registry Set Essential

1901-S $5 MS67+ PCGS. CAC. A large mintage of more than 3.6 million Liberty half eagles was accomplished in 1901 at the San Francisco Mint, making the 1901-S an available issue and a popular choice with type collectors. Few examples can match the technical quality and eye appeal of the present coin, however. This piece is a spectacular high-end Superb Gem, the finest seen at PCGS, by virtue of its Plus designation. The well-preserved yellow-gold surfaces show a few apricot highlights, with vibrant, frosty mint luster on both sides. The design elements are sharply detailed and overall eye appeal is terrific. The PCGS Registry Set enthusiast will find no suitable substitute for this magnificent specimen. Population: 3 in 67 (1 in 67+), 0 finer (11/15).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25YX, PCGS# 8404, Greysheet# 9102)
