Lot 5109
1800 B-8, BB-188 Normal Date Rarity 4. PCGS graded AU-53. Subset of PCGS # 6887. In a new secure plus holder. A smooth light gray specimen with a grand display of deeper shades of the same antique hue around devices on both sides. Nicely struck, perhaps not completely so at the Libertyís head and curls, but still well enough that its charm is enhanced immediately thereby.
The 1800 BB-188 dollar is on the scarce side. Perhaps 76 to 200 survive in all grades combined. This population is far higher than the number of specialists seeking them. Thus, there will be no problem acquiring one for a "type" price. Pop 2; none finer at PCGS for the variety . (PCGS # 40074) .
Estimated Value $10,000-UP.
The Dr. Hesselgesser Collection.
