Description: 1798 $1 Small Eagle, Draped Bust Dollar, 13 Stars, B-1, BB-82, R.3, AU58+ PCG... 1798 $1 Small Eagle, Draped Bust Dollar, 13 Stars, B-1, BB-82, R.3, AU58+ PCG... 1798 $1 Small Eagle, 13 Stars SKU: 50455533 One of the rarest gems in the numismatic world, we are proud to offer the 1798 $1 Small Eagle, Draped Bust Dollar, 13 Stars, B-1, BB-82, R.3, graded AU58+ by PCGS. This exquisite specimen, hailed from the prestigious Eric Lane Collection of Early US Dollars, is the third finest known example of its kind. Minted in the historic Philadelphia Mint, this coin represents an iconic piece of American history, transitional between the early Small Eagle design and the subsequent Heraldic Eagle reverse. Noted for its historical significance and rarity, this 1798 Draped Bust Dollar features a bold strike that impeccably captures the artistry of the era. The obverse die, described as Bowers Die State III, reveals an incomplete low curl, while the reverse showcases multiple die cracks, including a prominent one extending from the N in UNITED to the wreath. This higher die state signifies its later position in the striking process, adding to its narrative appeal. The visual allure of this coin is immediately apparent. Liberty's cheek exhibits a trace of rubbing, manifesting as a light silver-gray area that subtly contrasts with the otherwise pristine surfaces. The coin's palette includes hues of original gray, complemented by rich gold and striking steel-blue tones, the latter creating a beautiful border on both sides. These colors highlight the mint's craftsmanship and add to the coin’s aesthetic value. Despite a few faint hairlines and minimal surface marks on the obverse, the overall preservation is nothing short of exceptional. The eye appeal of this coin is truly remarkable, making it a prized acquisition for any discerning collector. This 1798 Draped Bust Dollar not only offers a tangible link to the early days of the United States Mint but also stands as a testament to the enduring artistry and history captured in each coin. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a piece of American numismatic legacy.
