Lot 2019
1857-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Untoned. When found, the usually encountered '57-C is only VF with XF pieces being quite scarce. In Mint State 60 this date is scarce as hen's teen, meriting special attention since only 20 to 25 pieces are believed extant. Only marginally weakly struck in the centers, as usually found, this piece has bright surfaces with a hint of even a high grade in the fields. Good portions of mint luster remain with the surfaces showing moderate evidence of bagging. 31,360 coins minted. Pop 3; 16 finer.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,600.
