Choice XF 1800 Ten, BD-1

1800 $10 XF45 PCGS. Breen-6842, Taraszka-23, BD-1, High R.3. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/b. The only dies for this scarcer date, which is more difficult to acquire than either the 1799 or 1801. The reverse die had a long life, as it coined 1799 BD-10 and 1801 BD-1 in addition to the present die marriage. This is a butter-gold early ten with pleasing detail. Glimpses of luster emerge from Liberty's hair and the eagle's shield. Thorough study beneath a lens reveals a whisper of granularity, but there are no remotely relevant marks. Most surviving moderately circulated early tens are ex-jewelry or cleaned, but the current piece is problem-free.(Registry values: P2)
