<Our item number 139258><B>1810 &#36;5 Capped Draped Bust. Large Date, Large 5. BD-3C, Rarity-2. NGC graded MS-62.</B> Well struck, lightly toned and quite frosty. Frosty and exhibiting little if any color other than shimmering yellowish gold. A very pleasing example of this scarce early gold issue. All this is perhaps par for the course given the grade, with an especially bold strike complementing the luster as well. <BR><BR>The capped bust half eagle originated in 1807 and was in production for six years through 1812. It has been surmised from survival records that as few as 3% of the original mintage in any year in the capped bust left series are extant today. Most are found in Extremely Fine or About Uncirculated condition. It is significant, therefore, that this attractive 1810 example is Mint State. Collectors will appreciate the choice condition and the coin&#39;s historic importance. <B>Pop 50; 65 finer</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 8108&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;15,000 - 16,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 139258<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/48jpegs/139258.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/48jpegs/139258N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
