Plain 4 1834 Classic Head Five, MS64

1834 $5 Plain 4 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Second Head, Breen-6502, McCloskey 2-A, R.1. One of two readily accessible die pairs for the 1834 Classic Head five dollar, the other being the First Head, Large 4, Breen-6501, McCloskey 3-B variant. The McCloskey 2-A is distinguished by the triple-punched 4 in the date on the obverse and the position of the 5 in the denomination half under the arrow clutched by the tongued eagle. This near-Gem offers swirling and effusive luster on light yellow-gold surfaces, and only a touch of striking softness is visible on the highest design elements. Great all-around visual appeal. PCGS has graded just three finer Plain 4, Classic Head examples (1/11).(Registry values: P1)
