Description

1811 Capped Bust Left Half Eagle. BD-1. Rarity-3+. Tall 5. Genuine--Tooled (PCGS).
Two distinctive reverse dies were employed for 1811-dated half eagles, one featuring a noticeably taller 5 in the denomination 5 D that was also used in 1810. Somewhat fewer Tall 5 1811 half eagles survive than Small 5 coins, but examples of both varieties are available for those dedicated to seeking out an example. The present piece has much to recommend it to budget minded type collectors, for all early (read: pre-1834) U.S. Mint gold coins are scarce and eagerly sought irrespective of certified grade. VF Details.
PCGS# 8110. NGC ID: BFXS.
