1838-D $5 NGC AU55
DLRC #: 1852198 // PCGS #: 8178
Gorgeous and lustrous, this popular Dahlonega issue is striking in luster and overall eye appeal. The obverse just blasts the naked eye with gorgeous yellow-golden surfaces with some light hints of rose on the reverse. Plenty of luster and the lightest amount of wear on the hair of the obverse and eagle's wings on the reverse, but this piece is gorgeous!
