<B>1874-S $5 AU55 PCGS.</B></I> This San Francisco issue comes from an era of low mintage and high demand. Of the small number minted (16,000), numismatists saved fewer yet: collecting by mintmarks was still far in the future. The scarcity of this coin is readily attested to by the incredibly low certified populations. PCGS has graded only three specimens in AU55, with one coin (an AU58) finer; there are no Mint State examples. NGC has graded twelve and seven examples, respectively, in AU55 and AU58, again with none in Mint State (11/06). The surfaces of this piece have a pronounced reddish hue and the obverse especially is speckled with numerous darker red alloy spots, undoubtedly from improper mixture of the gold/copper alloy. The centers are a bit soft with strong peripheral definition. Only two marks are noteworthy: a semi-circular scratch is noted below star 9, and a hefty field mark is located on the reverse below TRUST.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
