5274 1798 BB-110, B-16. Rarity-6. Heraldic Eagle, 13 Arrows. VF-35 (see below) $5,300.00
1798 BB-110, B-16. Rarity-6. Heraldic Eagle, 13 Arrows. VF-35. An important and attractive specimen...
An important and attractive specimen of a very challenging variety. Pleasing silver gray centers yield to subtly toned peripheries shaded olive, copper, and gold. Nicely detailed and boasting strong eye appeal for the assigned grade, some light hairlines, thin diagonal pinscratch behind Liberty's ear to bust, no heavy nicks or disfigurements. A rare variety, especially so in this grade. The...  more
5275 1798 BB-122, B-14. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS) (see below) $3,600.00
1798 BB-122, B-14. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS). Light gray toning over smooth surfaces. Some scattered...
Light gray toning over smooth surfaces. Some scattered marks are mostly hidden by the patination. A nice example of the first year of the Large Eagle, also called the Heraldic Eagle, reverse.
5276 1799/8 BB-141, B-3. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS) (see below) $4,200.00
1799/8 BB-141, B-3. Rarity-3. EF-45 (PCGS). Glossy gunmetal-blue surfaces with some hints of iridescence....
Glossy gunmetal-blue surfaces with some hints of iridescence. Smooth, choice fields without problems. Prominent dentils on both sides. One of the more interesting varieties of this popular year.
5277 1799 BB-157, B-5. Rarity-2. EF-40. (PCGS) (see below) $3,000.00
1799 BB-157, B-5. Rarity-2. EF-40. (PCGS) A very nice example of the type at the assigned grade level....
A very nice example of the type at the assigned grade level. Nice gray surfaces show an overall golden sheen and somewhat lighter silver gray on the obverse devices. More lustre remains than usual for an EF-40 coin, especially around the reverse. Magnified scrutiny reveals a series of very tiny nicks around the peripheral obverse devices, though they are nearly invisible to the naked...  more
5278 1799 BB-162, B-6. Rarity-4. VF-25 (PCGS) (see below) $1,810.00
1799 BB-162, B-6. Rarity-4. VF-25 (PCGS). Ideal antique silver gray toning with even and pleasant...
Ideal antique silver gray toning with even and pleasant visual appeal. A prototypical VF, evenly worn and without heavy or distracting marks. Some hairlines are seen but easily overlooked, single isolated spots atop Liberty's hair and on her neck, tiny batch of very short scratches beneath the arrows. This coin looks excellent in hand and would be ideal for inclusion in a type set.
5279 1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-2. AU-50 (NGC) (see below) $5,000.00
1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-2. AU-50 (NGC). Mottled light brown and gray toning over surfaces that display...
Mottled light brown and gray toning over surfaces that display a fair amount of lustre. On the reverse below ES (STATES) are two digs, which we feel compelled to mention, but no doubt the grading experts at NGC saw them and used this information in assigning the AU-50 number. Most sophisticated buyers, and also dealers who have their customers' interests at heart, will go beyond grading...  more
5280 1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-2. EF-45 (NGC) (see below) $3,500.00
1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-2. EF-45 (NGC). Deep gray toning over smooth fields. Somewhat lighter on...
Deep gray toning over smooth fields. Somewhat lighter on the reverse. A nice example without problems.
5281 1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-1. MS-60, whizzed (see below) $29,000.00
1799 BB-163, B-10. Rarity-1. MS-60, whizzed. Silver gray with pale blue and golden highlights on apparently...
Silver gray with pale blue and golden highlights on apparently lustrous surfaces. The fields appear very faintly granular under higher magnifications, but under normal viewing this appears to be a very high-grade coin with no marks and even, if shallow, cartwheel lustre. The detail is exceptional, including Liberty's hair and the feathers on the eagle's breast, and the overall visual...  more
5282 1799 BB-164, B-17. Rarity-2. EF-45 (PCGS) (see below) $3,900.00
1799 BB-164, B-17. Rarity-2. EF-45 (PCGS). Uniform deep gray toning with some lighter silver gray...
Uniform deep gray toning with some lighter silver gray on the high points. Quite attractive overall.
5283 1799 BB-166, B-9. Rarity-1. AU-55 (ICG) (see below) $6,500.00
1799 BB-166, B-9. Rarity-1. AU-55 (ICG). Exemplary frosty cartwheel lustre cascades around brilliant...
Exemplary frosty cartwheel lustre cascades around brilliant silver gray surfaces on both sides. Nicely struck and very attractive, a coin that is just a bit of friction away from Mint State. Some hairlines are noted, as often seen at this grade level. Subtle toning remains at OF and beneath the bust tip, two parallel diagonal scratches at Liberty's shoulder are best discerned with a...  more
5284 1799 BB-169, B-21. Rarity-3. F-15 (NGC) (see below) $1,200.00
1799 BB-169, B-21. Rarity-3. F-15 (NGC). Mottled antique gray with darker gray toning inside the rims....
Mottled antique gray with darker gray toning inside the rims. Several light marks and abrasions from a stay in circulation, widely scattered and none of great seriousness, though we note a dig hidden in Liberty's hair and another above the back of her jaw. A decent circulated example for a type set.
5285 1800 BB-190, B-10. Rarity-3. AU-50 (NGC) (see below) $4,600.00
1800 BB-190, B-10. Rarity-3. AU-50 (NGC). Somewhat dusky gray and lilac toning over smooth surfaces...
Somewhat dusky gray and lilac toning over smooth surfaces with the appearance of a coin that has spent several decades in an old album or paper envelope. Seemingly original and problem free with traces of underlying lustre visible on the reverse.
5286 1800 BB-194, B-14. Rarity-3. AU-55 (NGC) (see below) $6,000.00
1800 BB-194, B-14. Rarity-3. AU-55 (NGC). Light brown toning over lustrous silver surfaces with some...
Light brown toning over lustrous silver surfaces with some hints of magenta. A nice coin with a great deal of eye appeal, worthy of a second or even third look, then an appropriate bid.
5287 1800 BB-196, B-17. Rarity-1. EF-45 (PCGS) (see below) $3,600.00
1800 BB-196, B-17. Rarity-1. EF-45 (PCGS). Light heather and gray toning over smooth surfaces. Some...
Light heather and gray toning over smooth surfaces. Some splashes of blue. A piece with a generous amount of eye appeal, an aspect that does count.
5288 1801 BB-212, B-2. Rarity-3. EF-45 (NGC) (see below) $3,800.00
1801 BB-212, B-2. Rarity-3. EF-45 (NGC). Mottled deep gray and silver gray toning lends appeal and...
Mottled deep gray and silver gray toning lends appeal and originality to somewhat lustrous surfaces. The best lustre remains in protected areas around the peripheries. No major marks are noted, only some tiny ticks here and there, no significant hairlines, a bit weak in Liberty's hair as sometimes seen. A tiny rim nick above the upright of D of UNITED is essentially invisible in the...  more
5289 1802/1 BB-233, B-2. Rarity-4. EF-40 (PCGS) (see below) $3,800.00
1802/1 BB-233, B-2. Rarity-4. EF-40 (PCGS). Medium and light gray toning over smooth surfaces, the...
Medium and light gray toning over smooth surfaces, the higher parts being somewhat lighter and giving a Florentine effect. Nice eye appeal.
5290 1802 BB-241, B-6. Rarity-1. EF-40 (PCGS) (see below) $3,600.00
1802 BB-241, B-6. Rarity-1. EF-40 (PCGS). Light gray toning over smooth surfaces. A few marks here...
Light gray toning over smooth surfaces. A few marks here and there are consistent with the assigned grade. A nice example of this relatively late date among the dollars of this type.
5291 1803 BB-255, B-6. Rarity-2. EF-45 (PCGS) (see below) $4,100.00
1803 BB-255, B-6. Rarity-2. EF-45 (PCGS). Silvery surfaces with light golden toning and much lustre....
Silvery surfaces with light golden toning and much lustre. Scattered marks here and there, particularly on the bosom of Miss Liberty, and some others on the reverse, though none are particularly severe.
5292 1803 BB-255, B-6. Rarity-2. VF-20 (NGC) (see below) $2,200.00
1803 BB-255, B-6. Rarity-2. VF-20 (NGC). Very nice light silver gray with just a faint hint of golden...
Very nice light silver gray with just a faint hint of golden toning. Even in appearance and full of appeal, only light tiny scattered marks acquired during a stay in circulation are noted. In many ways this is an ideal circulated specimen of this final Draped Bust dollar issue, worn enough to be within the reach of many collectors but attractive enough to be a point of great pride.
