1795 Ten Dollar, AU Details
BD-1, 13 Leaves, Well Defined

1795 $10 13 Leaves, BD-1, High R.3 -- Reverse Damage -- NGC Details. AU. Bass-Dannreuther Die State b/a. 1795 was the first year of gold coinage at the U.S. Mint. Just 5,583 ten dollar pieces were struck with that date, yet five die varieties exist. BD-1 has a long upper left serif on the Y in LIBERTY. On the eagle's wreath, the farthest right leaf is unfinished. BD-1 is scarce but collectible. This caramel-gold example has relatively few marks across the moderately glossy fields. Liberty's shoulder shows light wear. A tiny attempted puncture on the reverse border at 10 o'clock is the cause of the NGC designation, but the eye appeal is nonetheless impressive.
