Early Eagles
1801 $10 BD-2, R.2 -- Cleaning -- PCGS Genuine. AU Details. Bass-Dannreuther Die State b/b. The 1801 Capped Bust Right eagle claims a mintage of 44,344 pieces, with two die varieties known for the date. This coin represents the more available BD-2 variety, with star 13 nearly touching the bust. The sharply detailed design elements show only light wear and the mysterious vertical spines in the cap are plainly visible. The surfaces are lightly abraded, but the luster is dimmed by the effects of the noted cleaning.
