Popular 1806 Round Top 6 Half Eagle
BD-6, AU55

1806 $5 Round Top 6, 7x6 Stars AU55 NGC. Breen-6448, BD-6, R.2. The Round Top 6 or "Knobbed 6" variety. Bass Dannreuther Die State a/c, a combination unlisted in the reference but a logical transition point; the obverse does not show the edge-to-lowest-curls die crack needed for Obverse State b, though the curls are thinned, while the reverse shows the die crack through the N in UNITED to the arrowheads that corresponds with Reverse State c. This surprisingly radiant yellow-gold example offers strong eye appeal for the variety. Though numerous tiny ticks are present in the fields, the devices show only slight evidence of wear.
