1801 $10 Draped Bust Gold Values

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the $10 Draped Bust Gold (1795–1804) series of Pre-1933 Gold Coinage in the U.S. Coins contains 3 distinct entries with CPG® values between $12,000.00 and $360,000.00.

The Act of April 2, 1792, authorized production of the eagle ($10 gold coin)—the

nation's largest denomination at the time—and specified its weight and fineness. The

first such coins were minted in 1795. Early on, eagles were widely used in commerce.

Before long, most were exported in trade, and for this reason their coinage was halted

after 1804.
