Lot 1456
1834. Plain 4. PCGS graded AU-50 CAC Approved. A pleasing well struck example. In summer 1834 the $5 denomination was redesigned by William Kneass, who created what is now known today as the Classic Head style. The new 1834 issue is similar in design to the quarter eagle of the same date. The obverse depicts the head of Liberty facing left, her hair secured by a band inscribed LIBERTY, with stars circling her head, and with the date below. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM no longer appears over the eagle as in previous years (PCGS # 8171) .
Estimated Value $950 - 1,000.
