Lot 4429
1856-D $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-63. Warm golden toning on both sides. Softly struck but loaded with mint lustre. Great eye appeal. Only 19,786 minted. From the same acquisition as the previous MS64 example, and featuring similar vibrant luster, color, and strike character. These two lay hidden away for more than a century before they made it into the light of day once again. We praise this coin's survivability. Few have have had the stamina to have retained any mint luster, let alone such booming luster. The time to bid is at hand. Once it is over, then will come the time to uncork the champagne bottle when you succeed in acquiring this lot. The lucky person who puts this 1856-D half eagle in his collection will be the talk of the town. Pop 3; 3 finer in 64 (PCGS # 8268) .
Estimated Value $30,000 - 35,000.
