Owner Comments:
1876 $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. Untoned with some luster still visable. Very scarce date. 1,432 minted. An elevated degree of luster springs to life beneath bright gold and somewhat granular highlights due to surface contact with other coins. Yielding only one time at the reverse on the eagle's neck feathers, more detail can be found here than on the typical example of the rare 1876 date. A carefully graded example that should attract bidding attention. From The Steve Glenn Collection.
