Handsome 1797 Large Eagle Ten Dollar
AU55, BD-2

1797 $10 Large Eagle AU55 NGC. Breen-6834, Taraszka-12, BD-2, High R.4. The only obverse used with the Large Eagle reverse, having ten stars left and six right. On the reverse, a star touches cloud 4, whereas in BD-3 and BD-4 the star is distant from cloud 4.
The present Choice AU offering displays bright brassy-gold surfaces that yield a sight greenish cast. Luster resides in the recessed areas, and well centered design elements are well defined throughout, except for softness on the eagle's breast feathers. A few light marks are scattered over both sides, including a faint pinscratch running from star 15 into Liberty's hair. Nevertheless, this is a handsome specimen of this early ten dollar.(Registry values: P3)
