Early Half Eagles
1807 $5 Bust Left, BD-8, R.2 -- Repaired, Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. Bass-Dannreuther Die State d/b, clashed. BD-8 is by far the more plentiful of the two Capped Bust Left 1807 half eagle varieties, making it ideal for date and type collections. This AU-level example displays a sharp, even strike and medium orange-gold patina. Abrasions in the fields have been smoothed out, giving the coin a clean, mattelike appearance but preventing a numeric grade. Some mint-made adjustment marks are seen along the lower-left obverse border.
