Popular BD-1 1813 Five Dollar, MS63

1813 $5 MS63 PCGS. Breen-6467, BD-1, R.2. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/a, not clashed through the letters of LIBERTY; the shield is ambiguous. A new portrait design was introduced in 1813, and the BD-1 variety of the date is important to type collectors; as Bass and Dannreuther note, the BD-1 is "the only readily available date and variety of this type." The present example should prove desirable to type and die pair collectors alike. The strike is solid, and the fields shine yellow-gold. Only a few abrasions appear on each side, though the areas around Liberty show a handful of faint pinscratches which contribute to the grade.(Registry values: P2)
