The $2.50 and $5 pieces of 1861 follow closely the designs of the 1860 issues. The main difference is found in the legends. The reverse side now has CLARK GRUBER & CO. DENVER. PIKES PEAK now appears on the coronet of Liberty. Today, there are somewhere between 50 and 75 1861 Clark Gruber $5 in private hands. Like all 1861 issues, the half eagles come poorly struck. As such, they tend to grade lower than their 1860-graded counterparts. The finest known example is choice uncirculated, and any fully original choice AU specimen is a candidate for the condition census.
