Appealing 1795 BD-1 Eagle, AU Details

1795 $10 13 Leaves--Repaired--NCS. AU Details. Breen-6830, Taraszka-1, BD-1, High R.3. Most students of the series believe that the BD-1 die combination was produced before any other 1795 varieties, making it the first die combination of the denomination. This example is an early die state, giving it the added appeal of "the first of the first." The surfaces are microscopically rough, with prominent hairlines and tooling marks on both sides, in an attempt to smooth the roughened appearance, ultimately to increase its desirability. In fact, this is one of those coins that has considerable eye appeal, despite its problems. We expect a number of interested bidders to participate.(Registry values: P5)
