<Our item number 101872><B>1810 $5 Capped Draped Bust. Large date, large 5. NGC graded MS-61.</B> We are indeed privileged to be able to offer a wide assortment of high-grade early capped bust left half eagles in this sale, courtesy of several astute consignors. The present example displays the same frosty gold luster that is typical of other 1810-dated half eagles in Mint quality, with light yellow gold color having a slight amount of green tint in the alloy. The surfaces are choice while all the main design features were well executed by the mint staff. 1810 half eagles tend to be well made, though scarcely can it be said that they are "commonly found" in such attractive state of preservation. <B>Pop 37; 101 finer.</B> <BR><BR>Four major varieties are recorded in the Guide Book for this coinage date. This variety, with Large Date obverse and Large 5 in the denomination on the reverse, is clearly the most affordable of all four varieties and ranks as one of the most plentiful of all varieties of this design. <BR>Estimated Value $8,000-9,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 101872<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/37jpegs//101872.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/37jpegs//101872N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
