Description

1835 Classic Head Half Eagle, Mint State

1835 $5 MS60 PCGS. CAC. Second Head, Breen-6505, McCloskey 3-D, R.3. The leaf pairs are close to the U in UNITED on the reverse but do not touch it, and the middle of the 5 in the denomination is centered under the tip of the arrow feathers. Several letters on the reverse show obvious repunching. Pleasing luster around the periphery enhances the dusty medium-yellow patina that covers both sides. The hair above Liberty's ear is softly defined, but the rest of the details are exquisitely struck. There are no particularly bothersome marks on either side.(Registry values: P1)
