Glorious 1799 Small Stars Obverse Eagle, BD-2, AU58

1799 $10 Small Stars Obverse AU58 NGC. Breen-6839, Taraszka-14, BD-2, High R.5. BD Obverse State b/Reverse State b. Stars 1 and 13 are away from the bust and star 9 is away from the Y in LIBERTY. A small die crack runs from the rim through the left serifs of the L in LIBERTY, and lightly into the top of the cap. The reverse, previously used on the extremely rare BD-1 pairing, shows a small "rust-like crack" within C, through A, the talon, stem end, and tail feathers; another shows faintly through the O in OF to cloud 7.
Glorious mint luster cascades from both sides of this yellow-gold piece, which shows few abrasions but does have a couple of milky dark-gray toning spots. Nonetheless the piece is quite attractive, and it would make a superb acquisition for a type or date set.(Registry values: P2)
