1795[$5] Small Eagle AU58 NGC.
<B>1795<$5> Small Eagle AU58 NGC.</B></I> B. 6-E, Miller-8, R.5. A very scarce die pairing, often seen cleaned and/or damaged. The obverse displays a closely spaced date with the 9 and 5 almost touching, and the star at the lower right is farther from the bust than any other 1795 obverse. A thin die crack is seen on the reverse from the rim through the N of UNITED to the eagle. Offered here is an exceptionally fine example of this popular, first year Half Eagle. The striking details are strong throughout and much of the original luster remains in the more protected areas of the design. The basic yellow-gold color of the coin is sharply accented by deep reddish patina that surrounds the devices and also lies within the recesses of the design elements. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
