Early Half Eagles
1804 $5 Small Over Large 8, BD-7, R.4 -- Repaired, Whizzed -- NGC Details. AU. Bass-Dannreuther Die State c/c. From a very late state of the dies, an extensive network of die cracks and clash marks is evident on the reverse. The strongly impressed design elements show only a trace of actual wear, but the orange-gold surfaces display evidence of whizzing and smoothing in the form of numerous finely etched lines in the fields and somewhat muted mint luster. The BD-7 variety is popular with collectors because of the dramatic repunching on the first three numerals in the date.
