<B>1800 $1 --Damaged--NCS. Unc Details.</B></I> B-2, BB-182, R.6. Die State II. Fine die cracks on the reverse connect the first A in AMERICA to the border and the wing, and join OF to the wing.<BR> The surfaces of this essentially Mint State coin are marred by countless small ticks, nicks, and punch marks. A large blemish is near the upper leaf on the reverse. Otherwise, it would be far and away the finest known, with full luster, a sharp strike, excellent centering, and lovely toning. Both sides have pleasing ivory-brown color with peripheral steel and pale blue toning on both sides. It may still qualify as finest known, depending on how much is deducted for the problems. <BR> The authors of the Bowers-Borckardt reference claim that there are no uncirculated pieces known, and certainly at the time that reference was published, this example was unknown to them.<BR> Stack's described this coin in their catalog as:<BR> "1800 B.2. Brilliant Uncirculated. An amazing coin for many reasons. Both sides are brightly reflective, with hints of gold, rose, and pearl gray toning. The strike is sharp, as well, with good definition in Liberty's hair and the eagle's breast feathers. Original mint lustre can be seen on the obverse and reverse. In terms of technical and sharpness grade this piece far exceeds any previously known, including even the French Family coin (Choice Extremely Fine). Both sides of this piece show many scattered nicks and tics and there is one small deep flaw on the reverse. Moderate die states."<BR><I>Ex: Stack's (12/1998), lot 1410.<BR>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>)
