<B>1806<$5> Round Top 6, 7x6 Stars MS63 NGC.</B></I> Breen-6448, B. 5-E, Miller-84, R.3. Although a decent number of B. 5-E examples exist in Mint State, they are rare coins when viewed in the wider context of U.S. numismatics. Only 64,093 Half Eagles of all types were produced in 1806, and those of the Round Top 6 variety are the most easily obtainable half eagles produced prior to 1807. A lovely Select quality survivor, both sides are colored in orange-gold and green-gold hues. This issue is generally not well defined, but the present example displays crisp definition over most features. Modest brightness is noted in the fields, the surfaces are free of most abrasions. For pedigree purposes, a thin scratch is seen from the upper left tip of the shield to the E of UNITED. <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.
