<B>1852 $5 MS64 NGC.</B></I> Despite a plentiful mintage of over half a million pieces, the 1852 is not as available as one might expect in the better states of preservation. Garrett and Guth (2006) comment on this issue: "Mint State coins are scarce, and there are probably fewer than 150 pieces known at that level. Choice examples are surprisingly rare."<BR> This bright, satiny example is predominantly pale apricot-gold with occasional orange and lilac accents. The strike is bold overall, though a touch of softness is present at the eagle's neck feathers, and the only individually mentionable flaw is a reed mark in front of Liberty's chin. Outstanding condition for the issue and for the series in general, a remarkable type piece. NGC has graded just three coins finer, while PCGS acknowledges none (11/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
