1855-S $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-55. The 1855-S is sometimes overlooked by collectors who concentrate on the more illustrious rarities from Dahlonega and Charlotte, yet this shouldn't be overlooked since mintage was small (61,000). What's more, as the second year of issue, many if not most went into circulation. Only a handful of lustrous About Uncirculated examples like the present coin ever make their way to market. This has brownish orange patina around the devices with a few toned spots at the date, as per the photos (PCGS # 8265) .
Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,500.
