Lot Details
Lot 1213
United States $5 Liberty Presentation Variety
A very unusual 1899 S $5 Liberty which has been over or under struck with what appears to be oak leaves. The coin is encapsulated in Lucite and accompanied by a hand written note from Harry S. Truman, " Here is a $5 dollar gold piece from Talge for the new baby. HST", which is probably a reference to his friend Henry Talge. A wonderful piece for the Truman aficionado.
