1810 $5 Large Date, Large 5 MS63 NGC. Breen-6459, BD-4, R.2. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/a with no evidence of clash marks aside from a slender raised area (as produced) near star 4. A pleasing example that has smooth fields and good luster. The central reverse exhibits faint roller marks, as struck, but the design is otherwise well impressed. Light honey-gold except at the borders, which offer olive-green tints. Along with the Round Top 1806, the 1810 Large Date, Large 5 ranks among the more available varieties of early gold half eagles. Yet any Capped Bust Left example is very scarce in Select condition, and growing demand from gold type collectors ensures that few such pieces are to be found on the bourse floor.
