<Our item number 107139><B>1804 &#36;5 Capped Bust. Small 8. NGC graded MS-62 Breen-2E.</B> Well struck and mostly untoned with several light adjustment lines across the lower half of Liberty. A bisecting die break is diagnostic of this obverse. A satiny golden coin with a vivid display of rich luster iridescence on both sides. Desirable with this controlled strike, too, as evidenced on the sharp stars, full rim denticles, and crisp, clear impression at the central high points. <B>Pop 2; 5 finer; 3 in 63; 2 in 64.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 8085&#41;</B>. <BR><BR>Note the die crack through the digit 0, continuing across the bust of Liberty, eventually reaching the border between LI. The reverse also has a die crack from the right wing to E of AMERICA. This reverse die was earlier used in 1803. Walter Breen noted that this 2-E variety is &#34;probably the least rare 1804.&#34; <BR>Estimated Value &#36;13,000-14,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 107139<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauct ion/39jpegs/107139.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/39jpegs/107139N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
