Although the $5 Half Eagle was the first to be produced, the $10 Eagle was designated as the base-unit of America's gold coinage and was considered the most popular and longest-running denominationof the gold Eagles. Utilizing the same Liberty bust design as previous coins in the series, the 1797 Eagle also included 16 stars surrounding the obverse..

Critics, however, were unhappy with the reverse featuring a small eagle that many claimed was too weak and anemic-looking; in later issues, the small eagle was replaced with the more ornate heraldic eagle and shield design. From a relatively small mintage of 3,615 coins, only 55-65 of the 1797 Turban Head Eagles featuring the small eagle reverse are known to exist today, with the finest specimens valued at nearly $500,000.
