Lot 1436
1799 $10 Capped Bust. Small obverse stars. EF-45. One of the more common varieties of capped bust eagles, this is a nice specimen for the grade. Light hairlines are noted from a gentle cleaning. The fields show the usual profusion of tiny tick marks from circulation when examined with a glass, but nothing heavy or worthy of note. On the edge near 9 o'clock on the obverse, the edge reeding is a bit weak, typically found on the edges of these early coins, and this area should be carefully examined by bidders. The surfaces are toned a light golden color, and the coin is well preserved overall. An excellent choice for the type collector.
