Description

Widely Pursued 1798/7 Ten Dollar
9x4 Stars, BD-1

1798/7 $10 9x4 Stars PCGS Genuine. Breen-6836, Taraszka-9, BD-1, High R.4. The PCGS number ending in .98 suggests Damage as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of an AU specimen that has been repaired and cleaned. The obverse has many pinpoint marks, as sometimes seen on jewelry pieces, although there is no indication of solder or rim damage. Repaired near the first three obverse stars, and the left obverse field may have been whizzed. Bass-Dannreuther Die State c/b with a prominent vertical die crack through the cap and the L in LIBERTY. Both sides have noticeable luster, and as the sole 9x4 stars die marriage, an important survivor.
