1801 BD-2 Ten Dollar, VG8
'Low Ball' Registry Candidate

1801 $10 BD-2, R.2, VG8 PCGS. Bass-Dannreuther Die State "c/c." The spines in the cap denote this late die state. At PCGS, the median certified grade for an 1801 eagle is AU58. A supermajority of survivors are XF or better. Examples in lower grades tend to be former jewelry pieces. It is highly unusual to encounter a problem-free Very Good early ten. It must have been carried as a pocket piece. Wherever its owner went, for many years the present piece accompanied, at the ready in case it was needed. That owner is presumably no longer with us, but the servant coin remains. It displays caramel-gold high points and olive-green fields. Although well worn, some hair and feather detail is present. Certified in a green label holder.
