Early Half Eagles
1807 $5 Bust Left, BD-8, R.2 -- Repaired -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. Bass-Dannreuther Die State d/b, with clash marks on Liberty's cheek. The tip of the 5 in the denomination points directly to the fletching, distinguishing the more-available BD-8 variety from the rare BD-7. The devices are fully brought-up throughout this pleasing Capped Bust Left half eagle. The noted repair likely results from smoothing in the fields to reduce marks, but the resulting matte-like appearance does not detract.
