Description
1798 B-8a, BB-125 Dollar, VF25
Die State III
1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, 4 Berries VF25 ANACS. B-8a,
BB-125, R.2. A long vertical die flaw to the left of the bust
identifies the obverse. This is the only four-berry reverse of the
year, which is a simple diagnostic. The reverse die has shattered,
with numerous cracks throughout, which indicates that this piece is
Bowers-Borckardt Die State III (Bolender-8a). Light tan-gray patina
covers the devices, which contrast nicely to the slightly darker
fields. Several letters in UNITED are soft, as always seen, and the
left stars are also weak. Two small planchet defects account for
minor rim flaws on the right. There are no noteworthy marks,
however, and this interesting variety is quite appealing
overall.(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24X6, PCGS# 6873, GSID# 7158)
