详细说明

Well struck early die state, lacking the oft seen obverse die breaks.  Thin, high rims are razor sharp.  Complete dentils, obverse and reverse.  The obverse die is famous: it was overdated and used in 1806 [1806/5 O.104].  No other half-dollar obverse die was used in successive years, a surprise in view of the number of overdates to be found in the series.  As a date, 1805 is far scarcer than its companions from 1806 and 1807.   Est. $1,800 to $2,450.
