Sale 13


Lot 1959

1803 $5 Capped Bust. 3 over 2. . M-56. NGC graded MS-62. Glistening luster on both sides and sharp on the obverse. The reverse is weak on the eagle's claw and arrows, and it is likely that adjustment marks ran through that area. We note the fields and upper devices show minor ticks from handling, expected on coin that is nearly 200 years old, even if it is mint state. This one is a later die state with cracks on the reverse as described in the Miller reference.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000.

 
Realized $6,613
