Demand for eye-appealing and premium quality coins pushes Heritage Auctions' July 20 event over $237,000.
1860 $5. Broad-diameter planchet pattern intended to eliminate the deception of slicing a gold coin in half and scooping out the gold in the center, replacing it with a lesser-value metal.
Obverse Description
Liberty Head by Longacre, facing right, wearing Phrygian cap, three stars above forehead, ribbon with LIBERTY at neck, stars surrounding, date 1860 below.
Reverse Description
Perched eagle with undulating ribbon above head, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA / FIVE DOLLARS around border; V is an inverted A.
