Description |
Sensational! We looked hard and could not find ANY negatives on this piece.
Exceptional surfaces are velvety smooth and are clean overall. only with a strong glass can you detect microscopic ticks on the obverse and small scrape on the reverse. a thick satiny luster illuminates both sides and enhances the gorgeous totally original gold color. There are NO spots or discolorations. It’s nearly impossible to find these Early Gold pieces so choice and original as this coin is. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have crisp stand out sharp strikes. The eye appeal is phenomenal! This is the BD-1 variety, which features the Small Stars reverse, the only use of the Small Stars on 1807 half eagles. Rated R-4+ in the BD reference.
PCGS 8, NGC 9. The last one of these to sell in a major auction brought $61,608.00. The coin offered he has been off the market for a long time. Yes, it has been to CAC. We strongly believe only the small scuff on the reverse kept it from beaning (CAC is extra tough on Early gold). We do like the coin. This coin is totally original and really looks great! The current Collectors Universe Value is $65,000.00. We assure you, this coin is really nice and you won't see many similar pieces ever offered! PCGS # 8092
