<B>1854 $5 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> No Motto half eagles are scarce in all Mint State grades, and the type becomes rare at the near-Gem level. The 1854 is a typical Philadelphia No Motto issue, available at close to melt in VF, but scarce in AU and seldom seen in MS63 or better. Although no 1854 fives have been certified as MS65 by either major service, the present example has the eye appeal of this coveted grade. The fields are remarkably smooth, and the orange and olive toning is clearly original. A good strike and satin luster confirm the exemplary quality. Housed in a green label holder.
