1795 $5 Capped Bust. Small eagle. PCGS graded MS-62. Well struck on a problem-free planchet and shimmering with frosty mint luster. Delicately toned and a very impressive Small Eagle $5.00. Only 8,707 struck for our first half eagle. One of the most important early type coins for the advanced gold-collecting numismatist to acquire. The fields are not prooflike like some others of this issue but frosty, while the devices are also well frosted. The Philadelphia Mint took extra care to produce really beautiful gold coins for their first year of issue, and this one was nice enough to be saved for over 210 years! Very well struck by the dies, with no adjustment marks whatsoever, the only weakness we can find in the design is atop the eagle's breast (a usual high point that often fails to show all of the fine feathers). We do note minor hairlines from handling but the coin remains very eye appealing. PCGS has graded only a couple of dozen this high of the date. A solid coin for the grade, and worthy of a strong bid. Pop 30; 20 finer, 12 in 63, 6 in 64, 2 in 65 (PCGS # 8066) .

The BD-10 variety is a fairly available coin featuring the 1795 Small Eagle pairing, since this is the only use of this reverse, it must have incurred some damage, currently not reported by the Dannreuther reference, "so one can envision a coin with further cracking."

The only known obverse state with this combination has the obverse heavily lapped with most of the stars attenuated and the lowest curls next to star 1 quite thin. The L of LIBERTY appears to be slightly farther from the cap than on BD-9 (which shares the same obverse), and again the lapping thins letters, stars, hair, and other details.
Estimated Value $65,000 - 75,000.

1806 $5 Capped Bust. NGC graded MS-63. Round 6. This obverse shows the stars arranged 7 and 6, the date has a knob-top 6 firmly touching the bust. The obverse field is hallmarked by some lovely warm golden patches of toning around and partially on Liberty's hair, while the reverse shows more extensive deep golden hues. Everything delightful and sharply detailed including most of the U.S. shield. The eagle's neck and wing plumage very sharp. Diligent search reveals a very few light hairlines and marks that qualify it under NGC's MS63 nomenclature. The principal devices on both sides are marvelously frosty, all complemented by richly glowing luster. Population studies find the Knob 6 variety is somewhat easier to acquire than the Pointed 6 type but historic prices are close. The most recent NGC Census shows: Pop 48; 29 finer.
Estimated Value $25,000 - 26,000.

1809/8 $5 Capped Draped Bust. NGC graded MS-64. Well struck. Nice golden toning. When it comes to early half eagles, this coin has what collectors prefer to see: a no-compromises extremely sharp strike, deep rich frost, layers upon layers of which possess attractive gold color, high quality planchet, and finally, superb eye appeal. Of course, the overdate feature is a center of focus that will grab your notice as well. It is truly wonderful to imagine the talent that went into minting superb strike and clarity that this coin possesses. Pop 32; 9 in 65. (PCGS # 8104) .

Note: the mintage of the various Capped Bust to Left dates is a fairly good predictor of relative rarity. Thus, the 1809 issue, with the lowest mintage of the type, turns out to be the scarcest of the 1807-12 series. All examples from this year are overdates, although the undertype faded as more and more coins were produced. Oddly, roughtly half the certified examples are Mint State per Garrett & Guth, with the warning "that number may be inflated because of resubmissions" to the grading services. The finest know is a single MS66.
Estimated Value $25,000 - 30,000.

1812. Wide 5 D. BD-1. NGC graded MS-65. In NGC holder 1776966-015. A magnificent well struck frosty mint gem. The surfaces are golden-orange that deepens slightly at the peripheries. John Reich's Capped Bust design made its appearance on the half eagles in 1807 and continued through 1812. This design type is also known as the Bust Left design, for the direction that Liberty faces. John Dannreuther discusses the problem of nomenclature in his reference on the early gold varieties: "This type was the result of hiring John Reich as an assistant engraver. His new design with a floppy cap has traditionally been called Capped Bust, but the previous type by Robert Scot also has a capped bust. This design also has drapery, so the nomenclature has bee confusing, to say the least. The definitive difference is the direction Miss Liberty is facing. The previous type has her facing right, while this type has her facing left. So, some have referred to the first series (1795-1807) as Capped Bust Right and this series (1807-1834) as Capped Bust Left. To avoid confusion, we have labeled the two designs as Draped Bust and Capped Bust--no matter what they are called, they are the pinnacles of early American gold coinage."

This example is from the Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection, and before that from the Nathan M. Kaufman Collection. Dallas businessman Harry Bass spent over three decades collecting coins, primarily gold coins, beginning with the purchase of an 1876 gold dollar that he acquired in 1966. Over the next 32 years, he acquired over 7,000 U.S. gold pieces, along with patterns, remarkable currency, and other desiderata. Kaufman was from Marquette, Michigan, and collected in the earliest part of the 20th century with his last acquisition taking place in 1927. After that time, the collection was displayed in the board room of a Marquette bank.

The Wide Denomination variety is one of two different die marriages coined with the 1812 obverse, and it is somewhat more plentiful than the Close 5D variety. This example is sharply struck with frosty luster and fully brilliant yellow-gold color. A thin scratch in the upper right reverse field, between the eagle's head and the scroll, provides an instant pedigree identifier. Pop 9; none finer (PCGS # 8112) .
Estimated Value $50,000 - 60,000.

1812 $5 Capped Draped Bust. . BD-1, Breen-6466. NGC graded MS-64. Well struck with intense frosty mint luster on a lovely problem-free planchet. Lovely natural golden-orange overtones add to its beauty. A highly glossy example that has extra frosty surfaces plus lovely patina with a bold, if not quite a razor sharp strike. No more than the luster comes a desirable strike on these early pieces, since the mint's quality suffered by a lack of more sophisticated equipment at the time this was made. This piece is struck with almost scientific exactness throughout the stars, hair curls and cap folds, on the obverse, and even the small clasp at Liberty's shoulder has its central squiggle visible. The reverse eagle is where the sharpness falls down a bit, with indistinct feathers on the neck and one wing, as well as some softening of the shield lines, about on par with other MS64 examples seen. Partly this is due to a few faint adjustment marks across the center of the reverse. All in all a first-rate specimen of the Type for the dedicated numismatist. Pop 34; 9 finer by a point (PCGS # 8112) .
Estimated Value $30,000 - 35,000.

1820 $5 Capped Head. . BD-2, Breen-6476. NGC graded MS-61. Well struck on a problem-free planchet with frosty mint luster throughout; all, lightly toned. Popular sought-after type coin. Highly lustrous fields with uniform frosty texture and minimal surface marks. Under close inspection, the obverse has a small line below the eye from contact with another coin. Devices as frosty as the fields and in the texture of the central motif is gently undulating, as made. Mellow gold in color. Boldly struck with complete star centers on stars 1 through 13, nary a sign of weakness anywhere. The central devices are themselves sharp on both sides, with Liberty's hair complete and defined, plus crisp details on the eagle's feathers, the stripes of the shield, legends, arrow points, feathers and all the rest. Pop 3; 45 finer.

Die characteristics: In BD-2, the date has a square base 2, 1 is centered over the left edge of a dentil, star 1 distant from bust, recut star 13 firmly touching curl (key, as only Square 2 with this feature); large reverse letters with a tiny lump where the rear talon usually hangs over the branch (key).

1838 $5 Classic Head. PCGS graded MS-62. Well struck with rich golden sunset toning. This Classic Head Half Eagle has plenty of eye-appeal. The surfaces ring from shimmering satin to hard golden frost, creating a lustrous and well preserved mid-level coin. Far in advance of most, this 1838 No Motto was also struck with systematic exactness including (not excepting) the usual weak areas in the center such as the hair curls as well as the outlying districts like the stars and letters in the legends. In other words, a very presentable coin! Pop 16; 40 finer (PCGS # 8176) .

1838-D $5 Classic Head. NGC graded EF-45. Nice golden colors. Only 20,583 pieces struck. Some marks on both sides. Pleasing toned surfaces with sharp design details and only a few very minor surface marks. Most noticeable is one between stars 1 and 2. A wonderful example of this important variety, the first and only Dahlonega Mint of the Type, and a desirable design inasmuch as it has the mintmark on the obverse above the date rather than hidden away on the reverse as in later issues.

The entire production of 20,583 coins was produced from a single die pair, thus just one variety is known. In the far-flung numismatic community it is believed that only a few Mint States can be accounted for.

This year is described by McCloskey as "1A. Fancy 8, single forehead curl. No berry in branch, no tongue, arrow feather over center of 5. Common variety. Minor clash marks. The reverse is cracked through tops of MERICA." Pop 18; 75 finer (PCGS # 8178) .

1842-C $5 Liberty. Small date. PCGS graded MS-62. Well struck and lustrous exhibiting rich mint bloom colors on both sides. Certainly among the finest known. Interesting over-lapping of metal on the rim at 12 o'clock. An incredible rarity and The Key "C" mint to the Half Eagle series.

Extremely choice surfaces and broad, framing rims with nearly complete dentils (only those at the lower left obverse lack detail). A satiny beauty from the Charlotte Mint and a prize for the collector of C-mint half eagles. Nicely detailed in all places. What is important about a rarity like this is that so few are traced in high conditions. This attractive Mint State can be identified by a small mark at star 2, a thin hairline left of the date and another equally miniscule hairline extending from the upper arrow point into the field. Perhaps no more than five or six individual Mint State examples of the date are known in all grades. One of the most celebrated Charlotte Mint rarities in this sale. Pop 1; 1 finer in 63 (PCGS # 8208) .

Walter Breen attributes a mintage of 4,595 pieces to the 1842 Small Date variety and 23,589 to the Large Date variety, indicating that the ratio was approximately 1 to 4. Douglas Winter estimates that 35 to 40 are known of the Small Date and 65 to 70 of the Large Date, a more conservative assessment. Concerning the date, during this post-Jacksonian period in our history, date sizes were in flux at the Philadelphia Mint, and certain denominations in the years 1842-1846 are found with variable sized date punches (as well as mintmark punches).
Estimated Value $70,000 - 80,000.

1846. Large Date. NGC graded MS-64. A gorgeous untoned example and boldly struck throughout. Highly lustrous vivid gold with traces of reflectivity on both sides interspersed with the mint frost. Considerably scarcer in Mint condition than its mintage of 395,942 pieces would lead one to expect. Most circulated; most known specimens range from Very Fine to Extremely Fine, to which can be added a scattering of About Uncirculated pieces. The present coin, graded MS-64, stands with only two others in this top grade quality among and is one of the nicest looking 1846 half eagles of which we are aware. Even the famous Harry Bass was able to locate only a Mint State 63 after years of aggressive buying. This may represent a once-in-a-decade opportunity for bidders. Pop 3; none finer (PCGS # 8226) .

Events of the day: on June 19, 1846, a New York Knickerbocker baseball player, Davis by name, was fined 6 cents for swearing at the umpire. The umpire happened to be Alexander J. Cartwright, a bewhiskered surveyor, who had originated modern baseball two years earlier.

Intense but still abundant frost, the coin brilliant with a soft golden color through which brighter gold radiance persists around the devices. Nicely struck for the date, perhaps not entirely so at the rims which tend to lack detail on the dentils, but certainly a coin that gets proper mention where completeness of design in a Dahlonega Mint half eagle of this decade is almost impossible to obtain. In a new NGC 4 pronged holder.Pop 19; 13 finer, 6 in 62, 4 in 63, 3 in 64.

The 1856-C is a rare half eagle delivery of the Charlotte Mint. The issue ranks sixth in overall ranking among the 24 deliveries in this series. The strike is about as one could realistically expect for a gold coin from this coinage facility. There are a few central areas where incompleteness of detail can be seen on both sides. Warm color as mentioned flows over soft, satiny luster. With none but the most trivial abrasions scattered about, this coin is markedly choicer than the typically offered Mint State survivor with many detracting marks. Pop 3; 3 in MS64. (PCGS # 8268) .

1858-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-63. A needle sharp strike on a slightly defective planchet (note some roughness in the reverse fields) and untoned. The 1858-C is a relatively obtainable issue in all grades but that does not mean it is frequent in Mint condition, not by a country mile! Choice Mint State pieces, in particular, are highly prized items and when available, tend to be the focus of strong bidding activity. The striking details are prominent for their crispness here. There is some minor weakening in the dentils on the obverse and reverse; centers are extremely bold. In line with the MS63 grade, the fields are bright and frosty with a slightly reflective sheen. The only significant surface marks are, as already described, a few rough areas around the eagle (done at the time of minting, more likely than not); otherwise there are no flaws, tarnish streaks, or edge bumps. In short, a very respectable high grade example. If you have allotted yourself only one C or D mint gold coin purchase out of this sale, and desire a choice one, then we direct your attention to the present 1858-C half eagle as it makes it a good candidate for such a purchase. Pop 2; 1 finer by a point (PCGS # 8277) .

1911 $5 Indian. NGC graded Proof 66. Only 139 Matte Proofs struck for the year. We note some lighter areas peeking through the rich beige blast matte proof color. A wonderful Matte Proof gold coin. In a select group at this grade level. Only 139 struck. This example is phenomenal for its deep strike. Nearly all matte or sandblast Proof gold issues are, but few can hold a candle to this specimen. The surfaces have a microscopically grainy appearance with myriad points of tiny bright facets from the effect of sand-blasting the struck coin directly after being taken out of the coining press. So perfect is it that the coin is pretty much "as struck," it follow, then, the surfaces are devoid of noticeable blemishes or handling signs. There are no copper stains. This half eagle is positioned perfectly to attract the most experienced -- may we say "refined"? -- buyer. We expect considerable activity today because of the strong gold market and also a stronger than usual market in great American gold Proofs.

The Indian design half eagles, along with quarter eagles were unique in American numismatics. The Mint in Philadelphia was experimenting with different coin styles at the time and grabbed onto Pratt's "recessed relief" plan of sinking the design below the surface of the coin. Types of finish for Proof coins were also experimental in this period, ranging from satiny bright (the so-called Roman finish of 1909-10) to varying stages of sandblast (1908 and 1911-15) for the various gold denominations, not only the five-dollar pieces.
