1799. Large Obverse Stars BD-10 Rarity 3. PCGS graded AU-58. Well defined and shimmering with lovely mint luster. Struck on a problem free planchet with some reflectivity evident about the protected areas around the devices. Has one very small chattermark in the field below the chin; one star above the eagle is weak (the one nearest TE of STATES). These, of course, are minor items. Hints of delicate golden hues lends to its appeal. A sharply struck, attractively preserved offering that would make a fitting addition to a Type Set of early U.S. gold.
