1807 BD-1 Bust Right Five Dollar, MS63
Small Reverse Stars

1807 $5 Bust Right, Small Reverse Stars, BD-1, High R.4, MS63 NGC. This is a scarce but not rare die variety in Uncirculated grades, while as many as 100 examples may be extant in all grades. Early, intermediate, and late die states exist, based on the reverse die. Early die states, such as the example offered here, lack any reverse rim breaks. Intermediate die states have a single reverse rim break over the T of UNITED, and late die states have a series of rim breaks over the letters U, T, and D of this word. The late state coins are quite spectacular. This is a lovely example with bright green-gold luster and sharp design details. The surfaces are satiny with reflective fields. Both sides have the usual small quota of scuffs and abrasions, consistent with the grade. Census for all Bust Right 1807 fives: 16 in 63, 10 finer (11/23).
