The 1798 Draped Bust Silver Dollar is one of the most historically significant early American silver issues, and this PCGS VF-25 example represents the scarce BB-120, Pointed 9, 4 Vertical Lines variety. In this variety, PCGS has graded only 15 pieces. Of those, PCGS has graded 1 as VF25 with 8 finer, underscoring its scarcity within an already challenging series for collectors of early federal coinage and die varieties.
This example displays attractive, warm brownish-grey toning on both sides, giving the coin an appealing, original appearance that complements its honest circulation. The remaining design details are well defined, with pleasing overall eye appeal that reflects careful preservation over more than two centuries. Collectors pursuing specialized Bolender-Bowers varieties recognize the Pointed 9, 4 Vertical Lines marriage as a notable and elusive issue.
This 1798 $1 BB-120 has exceptional doubling on the reverse, visible without magnification--but even better with a loupe! The dramatic double striking creates an immediately noticeable visual feature that distinguishes this coin from typical survivors, adding an extra layer of interest beyond its rarity, certified grade, and limited PCGS population.250,000+ Reviews
