1800 BD-1 Eagle, MS61
Seldom Seen With CAC Approval

1800 $10 BD-1, High R.3, MS61 PCGS. CAC. Bass-Dannreuther Die State c/e. This usual die state features a crack through LIBERTY and clashed dentils above STAT. Only one set of dies struck all of the eagles bearing this date. Although the mintage was officially reported as 5,999 coins for the year, the actual production may have been as high as 12,500 pieces according to John Dannreuther, who suggests 200 to 300 examples exist.

Each side of this early eagle displays attractive reddish-gold color that is enhanced by glowing luster around the devices. Liberty's portrait and the eagle's breast feathers are razor-sharp. and detail only softens marginally around the rims. But the most significant factor regarding the aesthetics of the coin is the undeniable originality of its surfaces. A connoisseur's delight! (PCGS# 45732)
