2411 1798 B.6 (R-3). Knob 9 in the date BU $20,000.00
1798 B.6 (R-3). Knob 9 in the date.  Only 10 arrows in the eagle's talon on the reverse. Brilliant...
Only 10 arrows in the eagle's talon on the reverse. Brilliant Uncirculated and a highly enticing example. The fields and devices offer a full measure of icy mint frost beneath a pale veil of golden and lilac-gray toning. The legends, denticulation, and wing feathers are all quite sharp, and there is only a limited degree of striking weakness near the centers on either side. The quality of the specimen...  more
2412 1798 B.8. Pointed 9 in the date. Only 4 berries in the branch on the reverse AU $9,000.00
1798 B.8. Pointed 9 in the date. Only 4 berries in the branch on the reverse (the only such variety...
(the only such variety of this date). A strong, lustrous About Uncirculated or better example. A faint blush of delicate golden-gray toning highlights fields and design features that still retain more than their fair share of frosty mint bloom. With there being no confirmed Mint State examples and only a limited number of survivors within the About Uncirculated grade range, it is very probable...  more
2413 1798 B.26 (R-5). Pointed 9 in the Date BU $34,000.00
1798 B.26 (R-5). Pointed 9 in the Date.  4 vertical shield lines in each stripe on the reverse. Brilliant...
4 vertical shield lines in each stripe on the reverse. Brilliant Uncirculated with claims to the Choice category. A rich, ''virgin'' offering of balanced olive-gray is highlighted by compelling delicate gold, jade, and lilac-rose iridescent overtones. Other than the slightest trace of softness at the centers, the definition is quite sharp. In fact, Bust Dollars with this level of visual appeal...  more
2414 1798 B.27. Close Date. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $12,000.00
1798 B.27. Close Date. Brilliant Uncirculated. Rose-gold centers framed by sea-green and blue toning...
Rose-gold centers framed by sea-green and blue toning about the rim. The strike is precise with most of the intricate details plainly visible. The coin has a very good overall appearance. There are no major marks or rim problems to detract from the attractiveness of this early Silver Dollar.
2415 1798 B.32 (Rarity-7). Knob 9 in the date BU $24,000.00
1798 B.32 (Rarity-7). Knob 9 in the date.  5 vertical lines in each shield stripe on the reverse....
5 vertical lines in each shield stripe on the reverse. Essentially Brilliant Uncirculated. This wonderfully honest, entirely original, borderline Mint State coin offers everything for which a collector could possibly ask. A medley of lavender-violet, gold, and subtle aqua-blue bathes both the obverse and reverse of this beauty in a most attractive way. There is an ample amount of underlying mint frost that...  more
2416 1799 B.5a. Normal Date AU $4,750.00
1799 B.5a. Normal Date. Easily About Uncirculated or better with respect to wear. Smooth fields and...
Easily About Uncirculated or better with respect to wear. Smooth fields and assertive design features offer excellent balance in every respect. There is plenty of lustre adhering on either side, especially for a coin of this design type. The toning, however, exhibits a blend of jade-gold, aqua-blue, and lavender that is not convincingly original.
2417 1799 B.8 (R-3) CH VF $2,000.00
1799 B.8 (R-3). Choice Very Fine. Well struck for the variety with light toning. There very few contact...
Choice Very Fine. Well struck for the variety with light toning. There very few contact marks which enhances the appeal of this coin. A reverse lamination in the middle cloud is this coin's main detraction. Still a decent example of this early Silver Dollar type coin. ICG VF30.
2418 1799 B.10 AU $4,250.00
1799 B.10. About Uncirculated. Medium rose-gold and gray toning. The strike is strong and gives this...
About Uncirculated. Medium rose-gold and gray toning. The strike is strong and gives this coin further desirability. The lustre is still present under the toning and is quite attractive. Struck from the late state of the dies with extensive cracks on the reverse. All in all a very nice example of this type coin. NGC AU50.
2419 1799 B.10 EF $1,700.00
1799 B.10. Extremely Fine. An evenly balanced example that has medium gray toning with some light...
Extremely Fine. An evenly balanced example that has medium gray toning with some light gold on the reverse. Close examination reveals a rim pinch that was not mint-made and is visible on both sides. There is some lustre still remaining that peeks out from underneath the toning.
2420 1799 B.12b (R-3). Normal Date. No berries in the branch on the reverse CH AU $8,000.00
1799 B.12b (R-3). Normal Date. No berries in the branch on the reverse. Choice About Uncirculated...
Choice About Uncirculated and approaching a full Mint State designation. There is just the slightest hint of friction at the most vulnerable locations on either side, otherwise the surfaces are unencumbered in even the slightest way. A harmony of russet-gray toning laves underlying satiny lustre. Traces of gold and pale blue iridescence complete this highly desirable coin. Although technically...  more
2421 1799 B.19 (R-5). Normal Date. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $19,000.00
1799 B.19 (R-5). Normal Date. Brilliant Uncirculated, nearly warranting a Choice distinction. Well...
- nearly warranting a Choice distinction. Well struck design features offer exceptional definition in the hair curls, peripheral legends, shield, scroll, clouds, and wing feathers. Both the obverse and reverse are immersed in rich russet-grey, and feature distinctive golden overtones. A perusal of both auction records and census information regarding this die variety indicates a distinct absence...  more
2422 1800 B.17. Only 12 arrows in the eagle's talon on the reverse CH BU $34,000.00
1800 B.17. Only 12 arrows in the eagle's talon on the reverse.  Choice Brilliant Uncirculated.  Frosty...
Choice Brilliant Uncirculated. Frosty mint lustre augments chisel-sharp devices on either side. Each and every element of the design is fully struck including the eagle's breast feathers above the shield on the reverse. Wisps of jade, subtle gold, and electric-blue iridescence adorn the protected areas of the design and wonderfully embellish the visual allure of this exceptional example....  more
2423 1801 B.1 (R-3) AU $6,000.00
1801 B.1 (R-3). About Uncirculated. A solidly graded specimen with lovely pale silver and gold lustre...
About Uncirculated. A solidly graded specimen with lovely pale silver and gold lustre surrounding the rims on each side. The piece is nicely toned in pale gray in the centers. Fairly well struck for the date with most detail showing in Liberty's curls on the obverse and nearly full feathers showing on the eagle's breast. A handful of light, rather inconspicuous hairlines are evident...  more
2424 1802 B.5 (R-5) CH VF $1,600.00
1802 B.5 (R-5). Choice Very Fine and very nearly Extremely Fine. Toned in a medium gray with a decent...
Choice Very Fine and very nearly Extremely Fine. Toned in a medium gray with a decent strike. Some obverse scratches in front of the bust are shallow in depth. The coin still has a decent appearance and should be closely viewed.
2425 1802 B.6. Brilliant Uncirculated BU $10,000.00
1802 B.6. Brilliant Uncirculated. An unusual blend of blue and rose toning over silvery highlights....
An unusual blend of blue and rose toning over silvery highlights. The strike is excellent as most of the fine detail is clearly visible. The surfaces are mostly clean and mark-free. Here is a more than acceptable example of this early United States Silver Dollar.
2426 1802 B.6 CH AU $7,500.00
1802 B.6. Choice About Uncirculated. A nice example of the wide, normal date variety of the year....
Choice About Uncirculated. A nice example of the wide, normal date variety of the year. Both sides were sharply struck. Liberty's hair strands are sharp and bold on the front and the eagle's wing feathers show nearly full detail. The fields are bold and clear and still have some reflectivity. The piece has toned in a somewhat unusual iridescent blue and pale purple in the centers.
