1798 Large Eagle Dollar, XF45
Rare B-19, BB-106 Variety
1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, Wide Date, B-19, BB-106, R.5,
XF45 NGC. Bowers Die State II. A faint vertical die crack
through the hair has not yet reached the E in LIBERTY. This rare
variety has a wide date and diagnostic die flaws at the upper
reverse. Bowers (2013) notes that BB-106 "is one of the rarer
varieties of the year. An estimated 80 to 140 exist ... ." This XF
dollar probably ranks at the low end of the Condition Census for
the variety, along with the Cohen and National Bank of Denver
examples. Olive accents complement steel-gray patina. The design
elements, though lightly worn from circulation, retain much detail.
A small pedigree mark occurs on the bust.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24X6, Variety PCGS# 40023, Base PCGS# 40018, Greysheet# 199097)
