Description

1813 BD-1 Half Eagle, AU53 CAC
Exceptional First Year Type

1813 $5 BD-1, R.2, AU53 PCGS. CAC. Bass-Dannreuther Die State b/b. Clash marks on the obverse can be observed as diagonal lines from the shield through BERT of LIBERTY. This is an exceptional specimen, with rich amber gold toning that is very attractive. Only minuscule contact marks that are less in both size and severity than usually seen at the AU53 grade level. A solid strike for the issue with good definition of the portrait and eagle. Frosty luster radiates over much of the coin. Well-deserved CAC endorsement for this outstanding first year of issue Capped Head half eagle.
