Liberty Half Eagles
1870 $5 -- Obverse Damage -- NGC Details. AU. From a small mintage of 4,000 pieces, the 1870 half eagle is an elusive issue in all grades and conditions. This well-detailed specimen shows just a touch of actual wear, and the orange-gold surfaces retain traces of original mint luster, but a small hole is evident near Liberty's brow and a few noticeable abrasions are evident in the obverse field.
