<B>1860 $5 Clark, Gruber & Co. Five Dollar VF35 PCGS.</B></I> K-2, R.4. From a late state of the dies, this piece shows numerous die cracks, aside from the usual one from the rim at 12:30 to the C in CLARK: from the rim at 6:30 through the flag of the 1 and onto the neck; from the rear tip of the bust to star 13 and the rim; from star 5 to star 6; and from star 10 to star 11. In addition, this piece has two curious, oval-shaped protrusions near Liberty's chin, clearly caused by something that came into repeated contact with the obverse die. Some planchet roughness and field chatter are consistent with the grade. This piece may make a prize acquisition for the specialist in Territorial gold die states, a long-neglected area.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
