Lot 2366
1806 $5 Capped Bust. Round 6. NGC graded MS-64. Nice strike and mostly untoned. A vibrant yellow-gold, mint-fresh example, as crisp and glossy as when it was first released from to the Treasury for distribution. Both the peripheries and the central reverse are detailed and close to 100% crisp for their sharpness of strike, which is a forceful reminder in a coin from this mint that it is quality that counts. Only a small portion of the shield at its left edge and in the lower-middle portion shows any soft detail. A classic beauty in the American early gold series. Pop 14; 1 finer in 65. (PCGS # 8089) .
Estimated Value $40,000 - 42,000.
