Description
1834 Classic Half Eagle, AU55
Plain 4, HM-7, Middle Die State
1834 $5 Plain 4, HM-7, R.3, AU55 PCGS. Ex: Harry W. Bass,
Jr. Collection. Among 1834 Classic half eagles, the HM-7 is
intermediate in rarity. It is scarcer than HM-3 and HM-5, but
easier to obtain than HM-4 or the Crosslet 4 HM-9. Bass owned two
HM-7 examples, one each from the middle and late die states. The
present lot is from a middle die state with one (instead of two)
die cracks through the arrowheads. The chestnut-gold surfaces are
well defined. We note moderate marks on the obverse rim at 10
o'clock, and a reed impression near Liberty's chin.Ex: ANA Sale (Stack's, 8/1971), lot 2142.
