Uncirculated BD-2 1801 Heraldic Eagle Ten

1801 $10 MS61 PCGS. Breen-6843, Taraszka-25, BD-2, R.2. For many auctions, the single highest price realized is for an 1801 eagle. The demand for this issue has grown prodigiously within the past ten years, and was high to begin with. The number of advanced collectors assembling gold type sets continues to increase, and most such collections still need a Heraldic Eagle ten, a key to the set.
This is a charming representative that exhibits originally toned sun-gold surfaces. As is customary for an MS61 example, a loupe reveals minor obverse field marks, but these are relatively few in number, and the reverse is well preserved. Luster shimmers throughout the reverse and across the obverse margin and portrait. Luster also penetrates the open obverse field. Boldly impressed, and highly desirable in such quality.(Registry values: P1)
