Description
1804 Half Eagle in Tin
Judd-32, MS63
Privately Struck in 19th Century
1804 $5 Half Eagle, Judd-32, Pollock-6095, R.8, MS63 PCGS.
CAC. Ex: Simpson. Reminiscent of the "restrike" 1804 cent,
Judd-29 through Judd-32 were privately made during the mid-19th
century, produced from U.S. Mint dies sold as scrap metal.
USPatterns.com states that the obverse die was altered from 1807,
but that is incorrect. Both dies were originally used to strike
1804 half eagles: the obverse die coined BD-4, and the reverse die
struck BD-7. The obverse die shattered with a heavy bisecting crack
between 11:30 and 5 o'clock. A second heavy crack spans from the
first crack to the rim near 9 o'clock. The reverse shows delicate
cracks below the right scroll end. Broadstruck in tin with a plain
edge from rusted dies. Due to outward metal flow, the dentils are
indistinct, and the stars appear spindly and blurry. The eagle and
Liberty bust are well impressed. The silver-gray surfaces appear
unabraded. Judd-32 is extremely rare. This piece's 2006 offering is
the only other auction appearance we can locate for the variety. As
of (11/20), NGC and PCGS each report two pieces grade MS63, though
we suspect resubmissions have inflated that roster.Ex: Superior (5/2006), lot 939.
