1808 $5 AU58 PCGS
BD-4, R.3. Bold cartwheel luster supports a wealth of varied orange toning highlights on the satiny surfaces of this attractive early half eagle. The mint frost is deeply embedded in the protected design areas, and the few surface marks present are only visible to the unassisted eye. Pleasing and problem-free examples of this short-lived design type, 1808 to 1812, are always in demand with type coin specialists and early half eagle enthusiasts alike. Choice for the grade.
