BD-4, Early Reverse Die State

1797 $10 Large Eagle, BD-4, High R.4 -- Cleaned -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. Bass-Dannreuther Die State d/a, lacking the radial reverse die cracks at R and C in AMERICA, as well as the short die crack that connects the eagle's tail to the edge. The obverse is in its late die state with merged cracks at 7 in the date. Satiny sun-gold luster remains on surfaces that are glossy and lightly hairlined from a past cleaning. The BD-4 variety is easily identified by its two floating arrowheads and its distinctively styled eagle that is different than the eagle motifs employed on the other 1797 Large Eagle varieties. The eye appeal of this example with About Uncirculated sharpness is enhanced by its partially reflective fields and only minor small marks and wispy hairlining.
