Description

1803/2 BD-1 Half Eagle, AU58
Choice, Attractive Surfaces

1803/2 $5 BD-1, R.4, AU58 NGC. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/b, before a crack develops through the O in OF. The reverse die is in the same state as its previous use with the 1802/1 BD-7 die pairing. This near-Mint 1803/2 coin displays rich orange-gold surfaces with satiny luster and boldly struck design elements. Light wear is not bothersome, and there are no significant abrasions. BD-1 is relatively plentiful among the varieties of this year, with as many as 150 to 200 pieces extant. Nonetheless, coins with attractive surfaces such as the present are scarce.
