Lot Description

BB Die State IV. Boldly and evenly toned in a blend of deep steel-blue and gold patina. Both sides are well defined for the grade with plenty of detail remaining at the middle reaches of the numismatic grading scale. A somewhat scarcer die marriage of the 1798 Heraldic Eagle dollar, BB-111 has an extant population of 250 to 450 pieces. EF and AU examples are rare and make up the Condition Census for the variety, the present example representing the finest realistically obtainable for most early dollar variety enthusiasts.
