- A Stunning Small Reverse Stars 1803 Eagle 1803 Capped Bust Right Eagle. BD-3, Taraszka-28. Rarity-4. Small Reverse Stars. AU-58 (PCGS). OGH--First Generation. A premium near-Mint survivor from these dies. Deep honey-orange color throughout with subtle reddish-rose highlights evident as the surfaces rotate under a light. There are ample remnants of a semi-prooflike finish in the fields, the texture otherwise soft and satiny. Most features are boldly to sharply defined from a good strike. Notable exceptions, however, are those features near the upper reverse and lower obverse borders, which emerged from the dies with blunt detail due to slight misalignment of the dies in the press. Also partially to blame is a concentration of light adjustment marks along the lower left obverse border. These features are fairly common on early gold coins and represent the Mint's attempt to bring an overweight planchet down to within the authorized range. There are no sizable or otherwise individually mentionable marks, and the eye appeal is as strong as that of many Mint State early eagles that we have handled over the years. BD Die State c/d. Provenance: From the Andrew M. Hain Collection. PCGS# 8565. NGC ID: 2629. Click here for certification details from PCGS. Click here to see Coins in Motion.[“Coins]
