Sharp 1807 Bust Left Five Dollar, MS61, BD-8

1807 $5 Bust Left MS61 NGC. Breen-6453, BD-8, R.2. This new mid-1807 Capped Bust Left design is the result of the Mint's hiring of John Reich in this year, a career that would last precisely 10 years. Reich's signature notched star, star 13, is seen on every issue of this design through 1817. On the BD-8, the lowest arrow fletchings are at the tip of the flag on the 5. This piece shows splendid antique-gold and greenish-gold surfaces with much luster evident. A faint scrape is noted at the rim near star 11, but abrasions are minor otherwise. Adjustment marks are seen on the reverse, near the rim at AT in STATES and faintly through URI on the scroll below.(Registry values: P2)
