PCGS - The 1804 Plain 4 Eagle is one of the rarest, yet least understood issues in the history of American coinage. Four examples were struck, but only three can be traced today, and one of those coins is included in the Harry Bass Core Collection, out of reach of eager collectors. Although numismatists have known about the coins since the 1860s, the true origins of these visually impressive pieces were only discovered in recent times. Heritage Auctions is offering the finest-known example of this extremely rare early proof gold issue in "Selections from the Bob R. Simpson Collection, Part III" Heritage Auctions sale at the January 2021 Florida United Numismatists Show in Orlando.

IMO the 1804 G$10 is the single greatest US coin ever produced. The heraldic eagle reverse and bust reverse are on their own stunning, but once in gold become something truly incredible.
