<Our item number 127314><B>1795 &#36;10 Capped Bust. 13 leaves. BD-2, Breen-6830. NGC graded AU-55.</B> Untoned. On this variety of 1795 &#40;one of five known die pairings for the year&#41;, the date is widely spaced with the bust over the tip of the 5, star 11 away from Y &#40;both are key determinants&#41;; on the reverse, the leaf virtually touches U of UNITED. There is a small rim bruise above I of LIBERTY. The coin is supremely well struck and just as beautifully preserved barring the rim. Smooth fields abound. Sharp devices rise into clear separation of the hair curls and the folds in the cap, as well as distinctive plumage on the eagle. Because all early gold Eagle coins are scarce to rare, collectors rarely collect die varieties unless they &#40;the collectors&#41; are wealthy enough to afford to do so. BD-2 of 1795, because the same reverse was used on BD-1, has a variety of &#34;states&#34; of relapping and die breaks. A wonderful opportunity for the collector! <B>Pop 17; 90 finer.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 8551&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;40,000 - 45,000. <BR><BR>Our item number 127314<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/127314.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/127314N2.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/127314N3.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/127314N4.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
