1802/1 $5 Capped Bust. Rarity 4+. NGC graded AU-55. Well struck with light golden toning. A still-lustrous golden example with strong luster around the devices and pleasing old-gold highlights on both sides. Nicely struck for the date, perhaps not fully so on a couple of the hair curls at center below the cap, but certainly a coin that gets honorable mention where fullness of design is difficult to obtain given the limitations on the minting equipment back then. This coin was struck when Thomas Jefferson was President. Only 53,176 struck (PCGS # 8083) .
Estimated Value $9,000 - 9,500.
