1880 $5 PCGS MS65 ex: D.L. Hansen
DLRC #: 1875373 // PCGS #: 8351
An underrated Philadelphia issue that is quite difficult to locate in gem grades or higher. Frosty rose-gold surfaces with stunning eye appeal, it's hard to imagine a more attractive example, though the primary set does hold one of the finest graded for the date, a MS66.
