Description
1798 Heraldic Eagle Dollar, AU55
Rare B-20, BB-102
Pointed 9, Wide Date
1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, Wide Date, B-20, BB-102, R.5,
AU55 ANACS. Bowers Die State III. The rare BB-102 can usually
be spotted at a glance by the rim break below the eagle's tail.The present lot is among the finest examples of the variety. In his Winter 2022 Revision, Stephen J. Herrman lists only a single higher-graded piece, the AU58 PCGS Hesselgesser specimen. The present coin is similar in sharpness and luster extent to the Hesselgesser coin, and displays more attractive medium golden-brown, olive-green, and lilac-rose toning. The obverse shows shallow planchet flaws near 9 o'clock and 10:30, and a retained lamination is noted near the R in AMERICA.
