Bright, Sharp 1805 Five Dollar, MS63
Close Date, BD-1

1805 $5 MS63 PCGS. CAC. Close Date, Breen-6445, BD-1, High R.3. The scarcer of the two Close Date die pairings of this date. This impressive example possesses pale yellow-gold color and extensive shimmering luster. The strike is bold, since only the left (facing) border of the shield and the fletchings lack intricate definition. A small planchet flaw (as made) on the bust truncation does not distract. The surfaces are devoid of relevant marks. Struck from boldly clashed dies, and the obverse features a network of slender, mint-made die cracks that intersect below Liberty's ear. Population: 42 in 63, 20 finer (6/09).
