Description

1801 BD-2 Ten Dollar, MS60
Sharply Struck Overall

1801 $10 BD-2, R.2, MS60 PCGS. On the obverse star 8 is near the cap and star 13 nearly touches the bust. On the reverse, the eagle's upper beak nearly touches the star point just below. Boldly struck throughout and highly lustrous, with vibrant lime-gold toning and nicely preserved surfaces that only show scattered, minor blemishes and a small number of trivial hairlines. According to the Garrett-Guth reference: "The 1801 eagle has a high mintage and is noted for having the second-highest surviving population (after 1799), thus it is an excellent choice as one of the more affordable dates of the type."
