Losbeschreibung

1877-S Liberty Head Half Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC. Rich honey-gold color with a tinge of pale olive reflects the originality of this handsome piece. Nearly full, the luster offers attractive satin to softly frosted texture and the strike is pleasingly sharp. The 1877-S is the final low mintage San Francisco Mint issue in the Liberty Head five-dollar series, with a production of just 26,700 pieces. With most examples lost to circulation and the typical survivor well worn or impaired, this appealing and problem-free AU ranks among the finer certified and would serve with distinction in an advanced gold cabinet. Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection - CBL Set. CAC Population: 5 in all AU grades; 1 in all Mint State grades. PCGS# 8344. NGC ID: 25X3. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
