1890 Liberty Head Half Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). The small mintage of just 4,240 coins confirms the Mints preoccupation with other denominations in 1890. Auction appearances of this elusive date are very scarce. Light chatter and bagmarks in the fields on each side determine the grade, although even at this MS62 level few coins are finer. A special opportunity for the gold specialist.<p><p>
