1868-S $5 N1 认证号46689260, PCGS号8316

David Akers (1975/88)

As a date, the 1868-S is not nearly as rare as the S Mint Half Eagles from 1858 to 1867. However, above EF it is just as rare as the earlier issues and only Lester Merkin's 3/69 sale was ever described as uncirculated. The overwhelming majority of known specimens are VF and the date is actually very rare even in EF. The mintmark is very small and often rather weak.
