Newp 1857 $5

Was excited to receive a new addition to my gold type set today. This 1857 no-motto $5 lib in AU58 CAC is flashy with great luster and lemon gold color.

Although I pride myself on my coin photos, I have struggled to show off prooflike or otherwise very shiny coins. Looks better in hand. If anyone is on instagram I posted a video, not sure I can link that here. My username on there is hypnogold.

Special thanks to coinlieutenant for this one!

Thanks! I didn't feel emotionally ready for a guess-the-grade on this one. I think its a great solid 58 but this can be a harsh crowd. lol

I thought I might hold out for a 62 for this type but this 1857 looked great, and saved me a bunch of $$ for another coin. Have one more add coming soon-ish that I will be excited to share.

What a nice looking original piece of early gold. Congratulations on a solid acquisition.
