- 1796 BD-2, Breen-1, B-6113. Rarity-5. No Stars. AU-58 (NGC). Ideal rich yellow gold with bright lustre, especially on the reflective re- verse. About as nice for the grade as one could ever hope for, an excellent example of this famous type. Free of planchet flaws, only minor hairlines and tiny scattered contact points noted, little spot inside denticles near truncation of the bust. Nicer than the flawed Bass example, a really charming little coin. Exceptionally well struck.
with full horizontal shield lines though the eagle’s feathers are not bold, only light traces of adjustment marks inside the shield are seen under magnification. Fewer than 1,000 pieces are thought to have been struck (963, to be precise), and most of those extant today of this unique No Stars type are flawed or damaged. This choice ex- ample will suit the most finicky collector - it is a superb example in every regard.
