Attractive BD-2 1801 Ten Dollar, AU53

1801 $10 AU53 NGC. Breen-6843, Taraszka-25, BD-2, R.2. From a relatively large mintage of 44,344 pieces, the 1801 eagle has the second highest surviving population of the Capped Bust Right, Heraldic Eagle design. This date is available in all grades up to MS62, making it a favorite for early type collectors.
The present coin is a representative of the Breen-6843, BD-2 variety, characterized by the position of star 8 near the cap, and star 13 near the bust. The strike is a little soft on some stars and facial features, as often seen on this date. The surfaces show only moderate abrasions for the grade, with slight wear on the highest points of the design. Overall, this specimen is an extremely attractive example of this popular date.(Registry values: P1)
