The two varieties of 1801 are quickly distinguished by a glance at either star 1 or star 8 on the obverse. BD-1 is a much rarer variety, identified by star 1 nearly touching the hair curl and star 8 distant from the cap. BD-2 is the most common early eagle, with star 1 distant from the curl and star 8 close to the cap. The reverse die of this variety made its first appearance in 1801, and continued in use with an 1803 obverse die. This piece is an attractive greenish-gold representative with lightly abraded surfaces and moderate wear on the highpoints. Both sides retain some luster, and the overall appearance is pleasing to the eye. It is an excellent candidate for a type collection.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Robert Scot<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
