Lot 1604
1906-D $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-65. After 43 years serving as a government assay office since 1863, the facility that used to house the private gold minter Clark, Gruber and Company was converted into the Denver Mint. The mint opened for business in February 1906. Half Eagles from mint, the 1906-D, were produced to the extent of 320,000 coins. As a certified Gem MS65, this '06-D surpasses most others in technical quality and eye appeal. The fully frosted surfaces are covered in pale orange-gold color. There are no areas of striking incompleteness. Further, both sides are free of all but the tiniest abrasions. Truly a wonderful coin (PCGS # 8414) .
Estimated Value $2,700 - 2,800.
