<B>1882-S $5 MS65 PCGS.</B></I> Currently reported wholesale prices for this date in Gem MS65 grade are less than 20% more than that of a common date, yet the population data suggests a much different potential scenario. Compare the current (12/06) population of just eight pieces and only one finer to a common date such as the 1901-S with 150 in MS65 and 32 finer, then consider the modest premium assigned to this date. Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth wrote in their <I>Gold Encyclopedia:</B></I> "Most of the Liberty Head half eagles of the 1880s are underrated in high grade compared with the much more common later dates." This lovely Gem has brilliant orange-gold color with frosty luster. It is sharply struck with minimal abrasions and exceptional aesthetic appeal.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
