<B>1810 $5 Large Date, Large 5 MS62 NGC.</B></I> Breen-6459, BD-4, R.2. This Capped Bust gold type coin is decisively struck save for the eagle's claws. Luster dominates the borders and devices, and abrasions are inconsequential for the designated grade. Traces of adjustment marks (as made) are limited to the reverse denticles.<BR> Although half eagles from this era have reasonable mintages, they seldom circulated since their bullion value exceeded face. Most were ordered by traders who exported them in return for foreign goods. After the gold coins reached European hands, they were melted, and recoined in more familiar local types. Most decimated of all was the 1822, of which three examples are known despite a reported mintage of 17,796 pieces.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> John Reich<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
