Liberty Half Eagles
1906 $5 MS67 NGC. The 1906 half eagle may not stand out as a rarity with its relatively steep mintage of 348,735 coins. And, in fact, it is available through most grades up to and including MS65. However, Premium Gems are rare and similarly graded Superb Gem examples only appear at auction once every few years.
This is as fine a representative as one could hope to obtain. The devices exhibit full strike characteristics. Rich orange-gold coloration dominates each side with added hues of lilac and thick, frosty luster. There are a couple of minuscule ticks, as expected, but nothing else. Census: 10 in 67 (1 in 67+, 1 in 67★), 0 finer (6/17).
