1799 BB-166, B-9. Rarity-1. AU-55 (ICG). 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 glass. An AU by anyone's rendering and a very handsome example of this early dollar type.
