1858-D $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-58 CAC Approved. Well struck and quite lustrous and a Premium Quality coin for the given grade. Higher grade examples of this date generally have frosty luster and this piece is no exception. It is shimmering and has not been impaired by previous cleanings or chemical enhancement, with only slight evidence of time spent in circulation. Fresh light to medium orange-gold hues can be seen on the obverse and the reverse at the margins. This color is similar to the shades we have seen on the few other high grade About Uncirculated 1858-D half eagles that we have auctioned in recent years. Only 15,362 struck. Pop 18; 8 finer (PCGS # 8278) .
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.
