1798 Draped Bust Dollar. Large eagle, wide date, 13 arrows. NGC graded AU-58. Nice untoned example. Line star pattern on reverse. Medium wide date. The 1 in date close to hair, 8 close to bust. Somewhere in the range of 350 to 550 1798 BB-122 dollars are believed to exist. The variety is very rare above EF and may be unknown in Mint State. The distribution of available specimens is heavily weighted toward the low end of the Very Fine category. A bright, lustrous example of this early heraldic eagle dollar, one boasting clean surfaces, freedom from nicks and other problems such as adjustment lines or rim bruises, and projecting the design outward nicely to the appreciative viewer. Another coin that would be ideal for ones Type Set. Pop 2; 1 finer in 63.

Realized $10,925
