Description / 1798 $5 Large 8, 13 St Rev Draped Bust Half Eagle PCGS MS62 (CAC)

HELLO BEAUTIFUL.  This is what ALL early gold should look like! Super high end for the grade, TOTALLY ORIGINAL with well preserved surfaces glowing with mint bloom and cartwheel luster. Rich yellow gold color and remarkably free of the detracting bagmarks and lines typically associated with this grade.  This coin has claims to MS-63 grade all day long! TIED FOR FINEST KNOWN for the variety which is a BD-5 of which an estimated 30-40 examples survive! Diagonal obverse break from Star 7 to beneath the 8 in the date.  Outstanding strike with bold devices. A prize for the fussy collector who appreciates original early gold.  You can't improve on this spectacular piece!
