<B>1820 $5 Square 2 MS63 PCGS.</B></I> Breen-6476, BD-3, R.5. The present sale has two similarly graded Mint State examples of this die variety. This example is a remarkable piece with strong design motifs and highly lustrous yellow-gold surfaces that exhibit greenish tendencies. Both sides have reflective fields and the overall eye appeal is excellent.<BR> Similar to the situation with 1810 half eagles, varieties of the 1820 half eagles were a jumbled mess until John Dannreuther came along and made everything better. It is now believed that nine die varieties are known, including four with a Square Base 2 obverse and five with a Curved Base 2.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
