|
1801 MS-60 details/light damage.
|
|
The consignor has never attempted to certify this early gold eagle, knowing full well that some small digs flung off to the right will certainly preclude a straight grade. He was more interested in... |

|
1801 XF details/damaged.
|
|
"Damaged" references a pair of rim indentations that seem to suggest the coin was once in a vise for who-knows what reason. The rim is dinged at opposing 11:30 and 5:30 edges of the obverse, and an... |

|
1801 PCGS Genuine (XF details/surfaces tooled).
|
|
PCGS code-98 may call out the surfaces as being "tooled", but such a brief designation gives no clue as to intent. Intentional tooling of surfaces in order to hide flaws is obviously frowned upon by... |

1801 (BD-2) PCGS MS-62.
|
|
1801 represents the most available date for early eagles in mint-state grades, with PCGS showing 177 in overall UNC, of which 64 are graded MS-62, and 73 are graded higher. These may seem like... |

|
1801 (BD-2, R.2) AU details/burnished.
|
|
It cannot be denied that the luster is flat and muted as the result of light wear and cleaned surfaces, yet sharpness is breathtaking for an early gold eagle, and includes fully beaded rims bordering... |

|
1801, BD-2, PCGS Genuine.
|
|
Serious error in judgment occurred when this coin was cleaned, as it was obviously an extremely well struck example near mint state prior to the injustice. Indeed, scarcely any wear is apparent... |

1801 NGC AU-58.
|
|
Here is a perfect example of the AU-58 grade. Surfaces are bright and fresh with only mild effects of circulation friction showing in the fields between the device and the stars. The strike is full,... |
