Description
ANACS 1798 Small Eagle AU 50. 13 Stars. BB-82, B-1a. A rare example of the Small Eagle reverse from 1798, and one of only two varieties. Usually only found in VF or lower, the Small Eagle '98 is an important condition rarity in XF or AU, and is unknown in mint state. This piece should fit into the lower range of the condition census for the variety, being tied with several others at the AU 50 level.
The coin has only slight softness of details on the hair curls on the obverse, but is quite weakly impressed on the eagle on the reverse. Much original luster remains and the coin overall is almost untoned, with a hazy gray-brilliant patina over both sides. There are no mentionable abrasions or adjustment marks, but plenty of interesting die cracks, especially on the reverse.
