Scarce in Higher Grades

1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, Wide Date, B-23, BB-105, R.3, AU53 PCGS. Bowers Die State II. The 1798 BB-105 dollar is a rather plentiful variety with an estimated population in the range of 400 to 500 coins, although Bowers estimates a higher figure of 850 to 1,500 surviving examples. This lustrous and sharply defined example has attractive silver-gray surfaces with richer steel toning along the borders. A nicely although imperfectly centered strike shows wider border dentils at the right obverse.
