    Description

    The 1901-P 1901 $5 Gold Half Eagle PCGS MS63 is a Choice Uncirculated pre-1933 US gold coin from the Philadelphia Mint, certified and encapsulated by the Professional Coin Grading Service. Carrying a $5 face value, this Liberty Head Half Eagle belongs to one of America's most celebrated 19th-century gold series, designed by Chief Engraver Christian Gobrecht and refined by James Longacre. The obverse features a left-facing portrait of Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY, surrounded by thirteen stars and dated 1901. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with spread wings, a shield on its breast, arrows and an olive branch in its talons, and the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and FIVE D. Struck in 0. 900 fine gold with a net gold weight of 0. 2419 troy oz, the 1901 Philadelphia issue is recognized for its strong strike and generous surviving population in Mint State -- making MS63 examples particularly satisfying acquisitions for type collectors and Liberty Head specialists alike. This piece is housed in a PCGS sonically sealed slab bearing cert number 46678537, providing secure long-term storage and straightforward registry submission.

    Frequently asked questions

    This coin is graded MS63, or Choice Uncirculated, by PCGS. At MS63, the coin shows full mint luster with only a modest number of contact marks or minor blemishes -- a very respectable grade for a gold coin struck over 120 years ago and well above average for circulated survivors of the era.
    The 1901 Liberty Head Half Eagle contains 0.2419 troy oz of actual gold content. The coin is struck on a 0.900 fine gold planchet, a standard composition used for US gold coinage throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, making it a meaningful gold holding alongside its numismatic value.
    Yes -- the Liberty Head Half Eagle series ran from 1839 to 1908, making it one of the longest-running US gold coin designs. The 1901 Philadelphia issue is well-regarded within the series for its typically sharp strike and relatively strong Mint State survival rate compared to other dates.
    The coin is encapsulated in an official PCGS sonically sealed, tamper-evident hard plastic slab with a blue label displaying the date, denomination, and MS63 grade. The slab carries cert number 46678537, which can be cross-referenced with PCGS for registry and set-building purposes.
