Owner's Comments

Sheldon 5. Very pleasing with no visible marks other than normal "background noise". No porosity, good color, a small planchet fissure behind the head, looks like a bit of extra hair. Few trivial rim nicks on the reverse. Probably the nicest S-5 I will ever own.

Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
