Lot Description

A very exciting and beautiful rarity! One of the most celebrating type coins of all US gold issues, the Capped Head (facing left) $5 gold pieces are unbelievably scarce in any mint state grade. This present example is the rare 5D/50 variety with blundered reverse die showing D of denomination over erroneous 0. A simply stunning select example bested by only three finer PCGS pieces. Crisp definition and satiny, bright luster grace the attractive lemon-gold surfaces. The in hand eye appeal is outstanding! Sure to be a highlight addition to any collection.
