1806/4 DRAPED BUST $2.5, 8X5 STARS PCGS AU58

This 1806/4 Draped Bust quarter eagle, 8X5 Stars, graded PCGS AU58, stands out for active luster. Early U.S. gold survives in small numbers, and high-grade pieces are pursued for their combination of monetary history and die-variety scholarship. Attribution specialists will note 8X5 Stars, 8X5. The population data and survival commentary both matter: fewer than 100 specimens are believed to exist in all grades. The About Uncirculated grade allows the design to retain strong detail while showing only limited evidence of circulation. Assembling comparable quality within this series is challenging, which gives this piece meaningful collector relevance.
