Description
Highly Collectible 1795 Small Eagle Five Dollar Gold
1795 $5 Small Eagle AU58 NGC. B. 6-E, Miller-8, R.5. A very scarce die pairing, often seen cleaned and/or damaged. The obverse displays a closely spaced date with the 9 and 5 almost touching, and the star at the lower right is farther from the bust than any other 1795 obverse. A thin die crack is seen on the reverse from the rim through the N of UNITED to the eagle. Offered here is an exceptionally fine example of this popular, first year Half Eagle. The striking details are strong throughout and much of the original luster remains in the more protected areas of the design. The basic yellow-gold color of the coin is sharply accented by deep reddish patina that surrounds the devices and also lies within the recesses of the design elements. (#8066)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25ND, PCGS# 8066, Greysheet# 8791)
