1795 Capped Bust Right Half Eagle. Small Eagle. BD-10. Rarity-5. EF-45 (NGC). Remarkably for a variety that numbers among the scarcer for the 1795 Small Eagle $5 gold issue, this is the second example of the BD-10 pairing to cross your catalogers (JLA) desk for this sale. It is an attractive piece with subtle pinkish-rose peripheral highlights to otherwise medium gold surfaces. Warmer olive undertones are also present to greet the viewer when the coin rotates away from direct lighting. Appreciable satin luster remains, the design elements boldly to sharply defined apart from light high point wear that does little more than define the grade. Free of sizeable or otherwise individually mentionable marks, this is a pleasing circulated example of the type, issue and die pairing that will catch the eye of many advanced gold enthusiasts. BD Die State c/a.
