Lovely Choice AU 1805 Half Eagle

1805 $5 AU55 NGC. Close Date, Breen-6445, B. 3-D, Miller-73, R.4. A lovely chestnut-brown piece with extensive shimmering luster and only light friction on Liberty's drapery, cap, and forehead. The breast feathers are exquisitely struck, and the surfaces are refreshingly unabraded. The Heraldic Eagle device was repunched, and the right wing and scroll end is doubled as a result. Breen 3-D was struck prior to Breen 3-B, since the die crack through the 0 in the date is often present on the latter but does not appear on this example.
