Lot Description

1798 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. Heraldic Eagle. BB-92, B-4. Rarity-5. Knob 9, 10 Arrows, 5 Vertical Lines. VF-20 (PCGS). Richly original steel and medium gray obverse toning yields to lighter pewter gray throughout much of the reverse. Both sides retain bold outline definition to most major design elements, allowing full appreciation of this classic early U.S. Mint design type. Pleasingly smooth for the assigned grade, this is an inviting mid-grade example of a scarcer die pairing of the 1798-dated silver dollar issue. BB Die State I-II (intermediate die state). PCGS# 40010. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
