1813 BD-1 Five Dollar, MS63
First Year Type Coin

1813 $5 BD-1, R.2, MS63 NGC. Bass-Dannreuther Die State b/b. The Capped Head Left five dollar series contains several rare dates out of reach for most collectors. However, type collectors will find that the first-year issue is obtainable, even in Mint State. Prices begin to climb quickly above the MS63 level, which likely provides the greatest value for the cost. This Select example displays lustrous green-gold surfaces and excellent eye appeal. Marks are relatively few and unimportant, and the strike is sharp except on the right-side obverse dentils. A desirable representative of the challenging design.
