Lot 3057
1800. BB-188; B-8 R2. NGC graded AU-55. Well struck with nice natural toning on both sides. Pop 2; 1 in 62. Among the finest know for the variety This smart-looking coin has great depth of detail from a sharp strike, showing full raised stars on the obverse, equally impressive curls and drapery folds, and full rim dentils. The reverse, as well, is exemplary for the 1800 issue, and both sides feature original "old silver" patina that is rich and rewarding to look at. If you have time for reflection, reflect on this: once the coin is sold, it may go into an established collection and not show again for years and years. We invite you to take the plunge with a firm bid so that others cannot lay hands on it and have it go out of your reach.
The 1800 BB-188 dollar is on the scarce side. Perhaps 150 to 275 survive in all grades combined.
Estimated Value $8,000 - 9,000.
