Description

Splendid 1801 Eagle, BD-2, Choice XF

1801 $10 XF45 NGC. Breen-6843, Taraszka-25, BD-2, R.2. This variety is easily identified by star 8 on the obverse, which is nearly touching the cap. Pleasing apricot-gold patina drapes the surfaces, with hints of medium-green color in the protected areas. Peppered abrasions define the grade, and two thin scratches by the date are barely worthy of mention. The design elements are well-defined, and the eye appeal is delightful. This variety is one of the most available out of all early eagles and is often chosen by type collectors as a representative of the series. Still, all early eagles are challenging, and attractive coins such as the present piece fetch considerable prices.(Registry values: P1)
