<B>1858-S $5 AU58 NGC.</B></I> Although the mintage of 18,600 coins suggests that this should be a relatively plentiful date, that is clearly not the case. In fact, the entire mintage entered circulation at the time they were struck, and few were saved, being subject to the rigors of commerce in a rough and tumble world. The various treasure ships recovered in the last decade have failed to reveal any examples of this issue, thus its elusive nature has been maintained. Over two decades of coin certification, NGC and PCGS have combined to certify just 84 examples of this date in all grades, but none have ever been graded finer than this piece. It is tied for the finest certified example, and it doesn't even grade Mint State!
