Variety with a pointed tail 9 in the date and an arc star pattern above the eagle. Splendid color and surface preservation makes this the ideal coin for a Type Set buyer since there is no extra rarity premium for the variety. Just how few really choice heraldic dollars exist nowadays can be seen in the offerings of miserable specimens one encounters at coin shows and in lesser auction sales and online. Be prepared against every emergency by submitting a high enough bid, or be forced to admit that the chances of ever obtaining one of these as nice as the present coin will forever elude you. <B>Pop 2; 3 finer; 1 in 58; 1 in 61; 1 in 65.</B> <BR><BR>1798 BB-105 shares honors with BB-125 as one of the two most affordable varieties of the year and, indeed, one of the most plentiful early dollars of any date.
