SPECIAL EAGLE
It looks MS but it was graded Choice XF.
This is a 1795 $10 gold, 13 leaves, of variety BD-2.
Only 90-110 of these exist so it is in the rare category, all grades included.
Heritage says, "Luster clings to the peripheral fields and design recesses amid bright straw-gold hues."
There is strike weakness in the centers due to the mint process.
This is evidenced by the marks seen on the eagles breast.
But still, "... wear is light. Visual appeal is outstanding for the grade, ... " says Heritage
Heritage sold it for $66,000 at their recent auction.

GOLD AU: $1459.70 One week ago it was: $1464.00 Change: -0.3%

It was a typical week. A few ups and a few downs. US/China trade talks are stalled and probably will be for sometime and that slows these markets down a touch. Well, we have more important things to think about this week, our Christmas pot-luck on Wednesday. Have fun.
