Description

1813 BD-1 Half Eagle, MS63
Sharply Struck, Ex: Ashland City

1813 $5 BD-1, R.2, MS63 PCGS. Ex: The Peh Family Collection. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/a. Among Robert Scot's Capped Head Left design, the 1813 is the most frequently encountered date. High grade examples are occasionally available and are the only date in the series that can be found with any regularity in Mint State for the rare gold type. This piece is uncommonly well struck with complete definition on Liberty's hair, the peripheral stars, and the eagle's plumage. A few light abrasions account for the grade. The mint luster is exemplary and the lightly marked surfaces show traces of die rust. Roller marks (as made) are noted along the right-side reverse dentils.
Ex: Ashland City Collection / FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2003), lot 4725; Dallas Signature (Heritage, 11/2005), lot 2403.
From The Peh Family Collection.
