<B>1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9 AU58 PCGS.</B></I> B-15, BB-112, R.3. Bowers-Borckardt Die State III. A beautiful Borderline Uncirculated silver dollar with exquisite powder-blue, apricot, and dusky forest-green toning. Both the fields and devices are lustrous, and high points such as the cloud centers and Liberty's shoulder show only a whisper of friction. The eagle's neck is bluntly struck, as are the curls opposite below the ear, but the remainder of the designs show pleasing sharpness. The surfaces are splendidly unperturbed by contact, and a minor obverse graze near star 1 is mentioned solely for those interested in researching the pedigree of this exceptional example. Concerning BB-112, Bowers wrote in 1993, "most specimens are in grades up through VF and XF. AU or finer pieces are very rare."<BR><I>From The Queller Family Collection of Silver Dollars.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
