Lot Description

Handsome olive-gold color with traces of frosty luster remaining to reward the more persistent viewer. Generally bold devices further confirm the desirable Choice EF grade from NGC. As one of the two most frequently encountered die marriages of the 1800 half eagle (the other is BD-5), BD-2 is a strong candidate to represent the scarce and challenging Capped Bust Right, Heraldic Eagle design in an advanced gold type collection. BD Die State c/c.
