1800 BD-2 Half Eagle, AU58
Repunched Reverse Star 6

1800 $5 BD-2, High R.3, AU58 NGC. Ex: Long Island Collection. Bass-Dannreuther Die State c/d. Star 6 is repunched on the reverse, and provides a pick-up point to distinguish BD-2 from the other four 1800 die varieties. The present Borderline Uncirculated example has lightly marked butter-gold surfaces that display luster within the cap, curls, wings, and borders. There are no distracting marks, though we note a small gray spot between the AM in AMERICA. A diagonal die crack between the IB in LIBERTY confirms a later die state, usual for BD-2 as we have seen only one example without this crack, as lot 3332 in our November 2021 Dallas Signature.
