1798 Bust $1. Heraldic Eagle, 10 Arrows NGC EF45
1798 Draped Bust Dollar. Large eagle, 10 arrows. NGC graded EF-45. Point 9, 10 Arrows. Frosty and lightly toned. A respectable grade for this Rarity-3 BB-108 variety. Quality is often hit-or-miss due to insufficient die pressure leaving behind soft, rounded features that are most noticeable on the hair curls and upper shoulder drapery, for instance. Nevertheless this is an actively collected design, the first in a short run of Large Eagle dates and varieties, 1798-1803. On the reverse we note similar weak strike areas but all is overlaid by nice golden highlights on the injury-free surfaces. Pop 3; 8 finer at NGC for the variety .
Estimated Value $3,800 - 4,000.
