Sale 5


Lot 1432

1797 $10 Capped Bust. Large eagle. Sharpness of VF-30 but solder on edge and repaired. This coin was likely worn as a jewelry piece at one time as the edge shows evidence of mounting and solder removal. A glass notes a few areas of very minute buffing to reduce marks or otherwise "improve" this coin, notably around LIBE and the eagle's head, as well as the rim where the solder was removed. Moderate handling marks on both sides accounting for the grade, but still this is a well struck and rare coin with all of the device detail present and some eye appeal. Identifiable by a shallow mark just above the last star and the solder mark above AM on the reverse rim, and another above the E of UNITED. Inspection mandatory.
