1811 Half Eagle, MS62
BD-2, Small 5
1811 $5 Small 5, BD-2, R.3, MS62 NGC. Bass-Dannreuther Die
State e/b, with prominently clashed dies. Only two die varieties
are known for the 1811 half eagle. The obverse die is the same for
both, but the reverses are readily distinguished by the size of the
5 in the denomination. The Large 5 variety is believed moderately
scarcer. Both marriages are much more elusive than the 1807 BD-8 or
the 1810 Large Date, Large 5, BD-4.This lemon-gold early half eagle has a lustrous reverse and full luster across the obverse periphery. Both sides are refreshingly devoid of singular abrasions, and the advanced obverse die state adds to the singular appeal this coin presents.
