1795 BD-2 Ten Dollar, AU Details
13 Leaves Type Coin
1795 $10 13 Leaves, BD-2, High R.4 -- Cleaned -- PCGS Genuine.
AU Details. Bass-Dannreuther Die State a/d, reverse lapped, the
usual state for these dies. Bright yellow-gold patina is somewhat
hairlined from an old cleaning, as noted, but the coin remains an
accessible option for first-year type collectors. BD-2 is the
second most plentiful of the 1795 eagle die pairings, although it
is seen much less frequently than BD-1. Both of these die marriages
are 13 Leaves issues, representing one of the major Guide
Book varieties. While recent offerings of higher-end AU
examples have reached levels close to six figures, this lightly
impaired piece will be a welcome alternative option. No obvious
adjustment marks are seen, and the strike is even. Weakness on the
eagle's breast is typical.From The Brittany Legacy Collection, Part I.
