Description

1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, Wide Date, B-16, BB-110, R.6, XF45 PCGS. Die State II with a bold straight crack through the 17 in the date. The crack does not extend to the rim near star 1. A better-grade example of a rare die pairing, housed in an older holder. The surfaces are principally powder-blue and lilac with deeper shades throughout the peripheries. A flan flaw is on the obverse rim at 3 o'clock, and the lower right obverse field shows a small dig near the chin.
