Lot 1998
$5 Capped Bust. 1804. Small 8 over large 8, Breen 1-A, Miller-59, R-6. PCGS graded MS-63. Satiny luster on both sides and fairly well struck. We note some light adjustment marks on the lower reverse rim. A perfect type coin for the collector. The 8 over 8 feature is quite bold, and we also note that the 1 and the 0 in the date are recut. On the reverse, the die shows several cracks, one through the U to the rim at the right wing tip, another from the D to the wing, and yet another from the rim to the A of STATES. The reverse die also shows clash marks. A very pleasing coin in every way (PCGS # 8086) .
Estimated Value $18,000 - 22,000.
