Andy Rosenblum R-3132796 ~Description of rare United States coin~ Please note: We sell coins from many different third party grading companies. We buy all of our coins based upon eye appeal, not the grade on the holder or the company that assigned the grade. Keep in mind that the grade on the holder is the opinion of the independent grading company, and theirs alone. Our photographs are enlarged many times, showing imperfections that would often be invisible to the human eye. Imperfections, such as bag marks, are more evident on smaller coins, as these are greatly enlarged in our images. Since all of our photos are shot through third party grading company holders, there are instances where marks, scratches, and other artifacts appear to be on the coin when they're actually on the plastic holder. In these cases, we'll mention such in the description of the coin. Presented is an exceedingly scarce, 1912-S $5.00 Indian Head Gold Half Eagle in MS64 condition. The 'S' mint mark is located to the left of the olive branch that the Bald Eagle is resting on. Experts agree that the 1912-S $5.00 Indian is among the most poorly struck gold coins of the 20th century, thus one of the scarcest to find in the type of condition presented here. The mint had numerous issues with the die during this year, including the inability to produce a well defined mint mark. Nearly all coins from this year and denomination are weakly struck and have an almost invisible mint mark. The specimen presented here, while having the usual weak mint mark, is fairly well struck. It has a very nice golden sheen and ample remaining mint luster. The total survival estimate for this coin in all conditions is 2,750, with a mere 400 known to remain in BU MS condition. We know that the most avid collector will be delighted owning this gorgeous gold coin, and we sincerely thank you for taking the time to view our listing. ( Our goal is to provide unique, and extremely scarce United States coinage. We strive for 100% customer satisfaction, and always go out of our way to make sure that our customers are treated with the utmost respect and professionalism.
