<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MIGuy, post: 24706464, member: 116145&quot;]The grade on this surprised me, so I&#039;m very curious as to your thoughts and any input.&nbsp; It&#039;s not a common coin - from PCGS - </p><p>David Akers (1975/88): The 1873-S is extremely rare in any condition. It is more rare than the 1868-S, 1869-S, 1871-S or 1872-S and is equal in rarity to the 1870-S. Almost all known specimens are well worn. All 1873-S Half Eagles have a Closed 3 in the date, and the mintmark is always weak.</p><p>David Hall:</p><p>I believe the 1873-S $5 Liberty may be unknown in mint state condition. I have never seen one and I can find no auction records of one ever offered as uncirculated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1578616[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1578617[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
