Lot 3807
1841-C $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-61. Bold strike with semi reflective surfaces. Nice light gold toning. Only 21,467 struck. Pop 4; 1 in 62. A blazing beauty of a coin, rich with orange toned luster! The satiny surfaces are afire with bright volatile cartwheel luster that looks as though it would like nothing better than to explode with a loud bang. Hard to believe on a coin in Mint State 61, but there it is. Well struck for the date, no one who has not seen this handsome five up close can imagine the detail we detect under a low power glass, and easily matching or surpassing others in this grade. If only it were possible for other, later date C-mint gold coins to be struck as boldly and as resolutely as this! (PCGS # 8203) .
Estimated Value $13,000 - 15,000.
