1581- 1848-C $5 Liberty PCGS MS62
<Our item number 113069><B>1848-C &#36;5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62.</B> A total 64,472 coins struck. Rich golden toning with mint lustre evident. Great eye appeal. Tremendous beauty from a very positive confluence of toning shades over the warm golden surface, which collectors like better to see than wishy-washy color; furthermore, the surfaces show smoothness far beyond the norm for this grade category. The design left by the dies lacks a certain robustness on the hair of Liberty above her temple and on some of the stars, but that isn&#39;t unusual for this mint&#39;s production. As for the eagle, it too is a mix of sharpness &#40;wings&#41; and minor rounding in the design of the neck feathers, legs and claws. About par for 1848-C in other words, although the MS62 grade places it among an elite few, as indicated by the eye-opening census numbers: <B>Pop 1; 1 finer in 64.
