Description
1800 AMERICAI Dollar, XF40
Scarce B-11, BB-191, Wide Date, Low 8
1800 $1 AMERICAI, B-11, BB-191, R.4, XF40 PCGS. Bowers Die
State II. This is by far the scarcer of the two AMERICAI varieties,
with a stray engraver's mark to the right of the final A in
AMERICA, loosely resembling an "I." The BB-191 shares the Wide
Date, Low 8 obverse with the BB-190 variety. Rich purple-gray
patina in the fields contrasts sharply against the light,
silver-gray color on the devices for a pronounced "circulation
cameo" effect. A few small, deep areas of toning visit each side of
this crisply struck early dollar, most noticeably on Liberty's
cheek and in the reverse stars. Faint lines and a peppering of tiny
marks are noted on the obverse and above eagle's head and neck.
BB-191 is one of the more challenging issues for the year.
Population (both AMERICAI varieties): 11 in 40, 37 finer (5/16).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24X9, Variety PCGS# 40081, Base PCGS# 86888, Greysheet# 7173)
