1797 Capped Bust, Small Eagle $10 leads gold rush...

A rare MS-61 1797 Capped Bust, Small Eagle gold $10 eagle sold for $258,500 at Heritage's 2016 ANA auction. This 1797 Capped Bust, Small Eagle gold $10 eagle combines a Small Eagle reverse die used for 1796 issues with a new 1797 obverse die having a rather unbalanced star arrangement of its 16 stars on the obverse, where the final star overlaps slightly with the 1 in the date.
