1806 $5 Pointed 6, 8X5 Stars MS (PCGS#8090)

The Regency Auction 40

详细说明: BD-1. As a general rule, the Pointed 6. varieties are rarer than the single 1806 Rounded 6. Though five die pairs were used to strike them BD-1 is R-4, BD-2 is R-5+, BD-3 is R-7, BD-4 is R-5+, and BD-5 is R-7. This easily identified die marriage is the most "common" and pairs 1806 obverse 1 (stars 1 and 2 are nearly touching at two points) with 1805 reverse B, with the right base of the Ts broken off. A decent AU55, this example has a warm orange and green hue over the golden surfaces. Tinges of original luster bloom in the protected areas. With a strong glass we note some minor hits and some wispy lines. The strike is a touch weak in the centers while being quite sharp at the peripheries. Housed in an old green tag holder. PCGS 10, NGC 8. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $12,000. There is a wide range of APRs for PCGS-graded AU55s with the two most recent examples bringing $6,600 and $8,400. Like all early gold, this coin is scarce in an absolute sense, even more so with the neat coloration. Cert. Number 2653521 PCGS # 8090
