BD-1 1809/8 Five Dollar, MS62

1809/8 $5 MS62 NGC. Breen-6458, BD-1, High R.3. Sole variety for the year. Bass-Dannreuther Die State c/b, a combination not specifically listed in the reference but a logical extension of those present; while the obverse die crack between stars 1 through 7 also extends to the bust, as on the obverse state c, the reverse does not have the die crack between STATES and OF that defines the reverse state c. This is a well-defined yellow-orange example with few post-striking abrasions for the grade. The obverse shows striking weakness at the upper right rim, which corresponds to adjustment marks on the reverse.(Registry values: P2)
