Lot Description
1805 Draped Bust Half Cent. C-4. Rarity-2. Large 5, Stems to Wreath. AU-55 (PCGS). CAC. This is a lovely example of both the type and variety that sports satiny, overall smooth surfaces and dominant medium brown patina. Mottled deep copper highlights are also noted, mostly on the reverse. Boldly to sharply defined throughout with eye appeal to spare, this premium quality Choice AU is sure to sell for a strong bid. The readily attributable C-4 is the only die marriage of the 1805 Large 5, Stems to Wreath Guide Bookvariety. PCGS# 1090. NGC ID: 222H. Provenance: From the Catherine Bullowa Moore Collection.
