1798 B.13 (R-3). Pointed 9. Choice About Uncirculated, and on the cusp of a full Mint State grade. The obverse is awash in beautiful jade, olive and deep gray toning, bathing decidedly lustrous surfaces. The reverse is much lighter in tone, with gold and peach joining light olive amidst frosty mint lustre. The strike is fairly strong for the issue, with some minor weakness noted at the dead center of each side as well as at Miss Liberty's ribbon tie. Here is an overall very attractive specimen of this variety that would make a fine addition to a date or variety set of Silver Dollars.
