Shown here is an 1803 Capped Bust Right eagle, cataloged as BD-2, graded AU-53 by PCGS and with a CAC sticker for further approval. The BD-2 die is tied with BD-6 for the rarest 1803 eagle variety. With few examples confirmed and given that this die is unknown in any other pairing, the reverse must have failed early in the press run. In addition to its rarity, the 1803 BD-2 variety is significant as the only one in the early eagle series with 130 reeds around the edge. Don’t miss your chance to bid on this great coin in the Spring 2023 Auction.
