1892-S
.
PCGS graded MS-65
. An especially appealing
condition rarity at the lofty Gem level, most survivors seen
show considerable handling marks and field scuffs, thus
lower grade assignments. No so on this carefully preserved
specimen as the surfaces are mint-fresh and highly attrac-
tive without the usual myriad surface distractions so often
seen. Liberty's cheek and neck are clean and smooth with a
frosted appearance which contrasts lightly with the satiny
fields. Rich honey-golden patina lends a fully original
appearance to this carefully preserved Gem. This piece is
included with a select group as one of the top examples
seen by PCGS excelled by just four pieces at that service.
Pop 17; 4 finer in 65+.
