Description

Judd-C1849-1 is a pattern eagle, or ten-dollar piece, of 1849 designed by Charles Bouvet and made outside the Mint. Only three or four are known, on thick and thin planchets, and those traced are graded as brown copper. Pollock mentions that restrikes may have been made in the 1880s, and a 2006 sale catalog reported that an example in gold, or gold-plated, may exist.
