Description
click for larger image1941: 1802/1 $5 MS64 NGC. 1802/1 $5 MS64 NGC. Breen-6440, BD-8, R.4. Although often called Left Overdate, Bass-Dannreuther calls this one of the High Overdate varieties, as distinguished from the Centered Overdate varieties of this year. It is true that the 2 is high and touches the bust; it is also true that the 1 underdigit is to the left of the final overpunched 2. The stars are arranged 8 and 5, and stars 1, 8, 9, and 13, respectively, are away from the curl, cap, Y and bust. All stars are, however, fairly close together, particularly the right-side stars, all pairs of which nearly touch. In this marriage the reverse has perfect T's and the last S in STATES is over the far right of a cloud. For early gold in general and for the eight known 1802/1 varieties in particular--several of which are extremely rare, R.7 or thereabouts--this variety is among the most common, and it one of which Harry Bass owned eight examples! It is the most common of the three High Overdate varieties (BD-6 through BD-8). Exuberant yellow-gold surfaces complement the radiant luster emanating from both sides of this lovely near-Gem example. Scarcely any distractions are visible to the naked eye, and the bold strike is obvious even without a loupe. A couple of faint contact marks in the obverse fields are visible, but scarcely worthy of mention. A faint triangular mark near Liberty's jawbone is evidence of die clashing from the reverse, at the bottom juncture of the scroll with the right (facing) side of the eagle's neck. On the reverse, faint adjustment marks appear under a loupe through the lower shield, the left (facing) claw, the arrows, and UN of UNITED. Coin Engraver: Robert ScotShipping: Coins & Currency (view shipping information)Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary.
