Lot Description

Visually appealing honey-orange surfaces, fully lustrous, and a sharp strike throughout. The 1897-S numbers among the more elusive San Francisco Mint half eagles from the later Liberty Head series, and offerings of Uncirculated survivors are normally few and far between. This is a significant lot for advanced gold enthusiasts.
