1812 $5 Capped Draped Bust. . Breen-1B. NGC graded MS-63. A nice strike with hint of light gold toning. A frosty fresh example with choice surfaces and nice luster, barring some adjustment marks across the shield and eagle, virtually as choice as any MS63 holdered by the NGC grading service. Indeed, only a few examples of this popular War of 1812 issue have been certified finer. Mostly well struck on the legends and main device, with just a touch of weakness at the eagle, again due to the mint-caused adjustment lines. Pop 33; 26 in 64; 10 in 65. (PCGS # 8112) .
Estimated Value $18,000 - 19,000.
