Early Half Eagles
1813 $5 BD-1, R.2, VF30 PCGS. Bass-Dannreuther Die State b/b, clashed. The 1813 Capped Head Left half eagle claims a mintage of 95,428 pieces, with two die varieties known for the date. BD-1 is the available 1813 half eagle variety, with a surviving population of 450-650 examples in all grades, an ideal choice for type purposes. This example is well-detailed for the VF grade level, showing bright yellow-gold surfaces with minimal abrasions. The strike is bold in the centers but slightly weak on stars 1 through 4. Visual appeal is pleasing. Housed in an old green label holder.
From The Hutchinson Collection, Part II.
