Lot 1906
1800 $5 Capped Bust. NGC graded AU-58 M-42, Rarity 4. Well struck and a hint of light gold toning. A satiny AU with strong fundamental luster around the devices, the only wear shows on the high points of the design and normal light friction in the open obverse field. Nicely struck, almost totally -- close enough to full that special mention is merited. The best thing is that this piece seems to have avoided the usual run-in with marks and adjustment lines. A beautiful example. Pop 73; 105 finer.
Estimated Value $8,000 - 8,500.
