1864-S $5 Liberty Gold Half Eagle XF-45 PCGS
The year 1864 saw an incredibly small production of five-dollar gold pieces at the San Francisco Mint. With a total mintage of just 3,888 coins, this issue is a remarkable survivor of the era. Crafted from 0.900 fine gold, each coin contains 0.2419 troy ounces of precious metal and represents a fascinating moment in Western minting history. This specific coin has been graded in Extremely Fine condition, specifically certified as XF-45. The obverse features the classic Liberty head design, wearing a coronet inscribed with the word LIBERTY above the date 1864. On the reverse, the design is anchored by the S mintmark, indicating its origin at the San Francisco facility, alongside the denomination abbreviated as FIVE D.
