Description

NGC 1798 Small Eagle AU 53. 13 Stars. B-1. Slightly more plentiful than the 15 Stars variety (B-2), this is undoubtedly one of the finest specimens known of this variety. The condition census in the Bowers and Borckhardt reference lists the finest known examples as 64-50-50-45 (multiples), placing this piece well within the lower range of these coins. This is a very attractive specimen of this scarce type. Much sharpness of details is evident on the recesses of the design, it is only on the most exposed areas that one notices a bit of softness and slight friction from circulation. Struck just a bit off-center, the coin is somewhat high but does show complete denticulation on each side. Moderate gray-golden toning covers both sides with slightly deeper peripheral color and some underlying iridescence.
