Description

Lustrous 1799 BD-7 Small Stars Eagle, AU58

1799 $10 Small Stars Obverse AU58 NGC. BD-7, R.3. The Irregular Date obverse is recognized by the unusual spacing of the date, with the 1 extremely low and far from the hair curl, and the second 9 high, nearly touching the drapery. This variety is the second most plentiful 1799 eagle, and it is the most widely available of the Small Stars obverse type.
This later die state example has rim crumbling at stars 1, 7, and 8, die cracks joining all stars on the left, a crack from the border through E, toward the forecurl, and a crack through TY to stars 9 through 11. A couple other faint obverse cracks are noted. The reverse has clash marks, and a faint crack from the border to the third feather of the left (facing) wing. An attractive example for the type, date, or variety collector, with bright green-gold luster, sharp design features, and smooth surfaces.(Registry values: P2)
