<B>(1842-52) $5 A. Bechtler Five Dollar, 134G. 21C.--Damaged--NCS. AU Details.</B></I> K-27, Low R.5. A historic and highly collected five dollar from the Bechtler family, who filled a local need for coinage rather than have miners risk robbery by shipment to the Philadelphia Mint. This is a well-detailed piece that has bright green-gold surfaces. The fields are peppered with numerous small abrasions. The damage on the insert apparently refers to three areas of pinscratching on the obverse. Listed on page 346 of the 2007 <I>Guide Book.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
