Description

1895-S MS 62. Semi-prooflike on the reverse, satiny on the obverse. The strike on this coin is definitely above-average and all of the eagle's breast feathers are well defined. Toned in a light haze of milky color, with golden undertones scattered about both sides. Some light bagmarks are noted on the obverse, but not to the excessive degree often seen on this issue. Many of this date came from the Redfield Hoard, but the vast majority of those are terribly marked. All in all, this is a pleasing and desirable example of this tougher date.
