Lot 2392
1801 $10 Capped Bust. ANACS graded Details of AU-53. Tooled-Whizzed. A damaged and repaired coin but still an historic offering from America's earliest period when gold coins were so prestigious (and few average people ever saw one) that the mint saw no reason to place the denomination on the coin. Size and weight alone were sufficient to tell the bearer what it was; and the active international marketplace gave a daily account of what $10 was worth in purchasing power vis a vis other world gold coins (PCGS # 8564) .
Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,500.
