Early Half Eagles
1812 $5 BD-1, R.3, MS64+ PCGS. CAC. Two varieties are known for the 1812 half eagles, and the BD-1 with the widely spaced denomination is seen about three times as often as the other variety. Since 1993, we have offered 174 appearances of 1812 half eagles, including 138 of BD-1 and 36 of BD-2. This variety is elusive in high grades, and only four or five finer examples are known to us. This piece has frosty green-gold luster and above average design definition with outstanding eye appeal. Population for both 1812 varieties: 46 in 64 (4 in 64+), 7 finer (3/17).
