1807 $5 BUST RIGHT

Description

1807 Bust Right AU 50 Bent. Large Date. B. 4-C. This variety is distinguished by a pronounced recutting on the 1 and 0 in the date. Most of the softness of strike is noted on the obverse, and while the hair curls are well defined, the face of Liberty is not completely brought up. The reverse is especially well detailed with strong feather definition on the eagle. There are a few small ticks on each side, but altogether a pleasing coin, there is also a distinctive accent of reddish patina around the devices of each side. We are uncertain about the bend mentioned above. We are not sure it was done outside the mint, and in fact, may be a result of a warped or bent planchet.
