<B>1912-S $5 MS64 PCGS.</B></I> Few 20th century gold coins are so tantalizing as the 1912-S five dollar piece. Garrett and Guth (2006) comment on its comparative and absolute virtues: "One of the classic rarities and most difficult issues to obtain in Mint State, the 1912-S issue has earned its reputation, which is quite a feat considering the number of rarities among the Indian Head half eagle series."<BR> The Choice exemplar offered here displays uncommonly strong detail overall, though the mintmark is softly struck. The subtly lustrous surfaces are surprisingly well-preserved, with only a handful of minor flaws that combine to preclude a better designation. Excessively elusive any finer; the combined certified population shows only one such coin, a single Gem certified by PCGS (11/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Bela Lyon Pratt<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
