<B>1802/1 $5 MS61 NGC.</B></I> Breen-6440, BD-8, R.4. This issue is always popular with collectors due to the fact that each of the eight known 1802 half eagle varieties are bold overdates and it is one of the more available dates in the Capped Bust Right, Heraldic Eagle five dollar series. The 1802/1 is not exactly common, however. The 2006 Bass-Dannreuther reference entitled <I>Early U.S. Gold Coin Varieties</B></I> opines that only 400 to 500 examples are extant in all grades. This is one of the few Uncirculated pieces known. The surfaces are bright and show good mint luster, especially on the reverse. Sharply struck throughout on both the hair curls of Liberty and the eagle's plumage above the shield. Only the slightest abrasions can be seen with a magnifier, none of which are large enough for individual mention.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Robert Scot<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
