Bright 1800 Half Eagle, BD-5, AU55

1800 $5 AU55 ANACS. BD-5, High R.3. Attributed by the blunt 1 in the date, the distance between star 13 and Liberty's bust and the star touching the back of the eagle's head. Bright, pale gold in color, as so often found with early US gold, and with distinct luster visible in the recesses. A number of small contact marks are visible on the surfaces, none of which is individually distracting, and a light adjustment mark can be seen on the right two clouds. A trace of wear is visible on the highest points of the design. At High R.3, this is one of the two "common" varieties for this date, and an ideal coin for date collectors.(Registry values: P2)
