Early Eagles
1799 $10 Large Obverse Stars, BD-10, R.3 -- Polished -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. Early eagles rank among the most impressive gold types. Their rarity and large diameter can stop traffic at coin shows. The present piece shows only a trace of wear, on the eagle's cheekbone and Liberty's shoulder. The butter-gold surfaces are bright, and the obverse field is glossy. The reverse exhibits many pinpoint-sized strike-throughs, likely as coined.
