<Our item number 103205><B>1805 $2.50 Capped Bust. PCGS graded AU-58 Breen-6121, Bass-3012, R.4, the only known die pairing.</B> Lovely natural golden toning with luster still evident. The Capped Bust Right Quarter Eagle type commenced in 1796 and lasted through 1807, but the collective mintage of all ten Guide Book issues (excluding the 1796 No Stars) fails to reach 20,000 coins! The rarity of these is now much appreciated by collectors, hence the activity seen whenever one is offered for sale. 1805 doesn't stand out within the series as a great rarity but is still elusive in the overall sense. This choice About Uncirculated has attractive luster on both sides and only a few wispy marks. Only 1,781 struck. <B>Pop 13; 7 finer; 1 in 60; 2 in 61; 3 in 62; 1 in 64.</B> <B>(PCGS # 7653)</B>. <BR>Estimated Value $20,000-22,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 103205<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/37jpegs//103205.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoi ns.net/liveauction/37jpegs//103205N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
