Lot #589 - 1798 Small Eagle 15 Stars PCGS XF details/cleaned
Silver Dollar-Draped Bust
Zee's Densities Collection. Bolender-2, BB-81 (R.3). Scarcer of the two 1798 "small eagle" die-marriages, B-2 also has the only fifteen-star reverse, leading to a separate entry in the Red Book. A glossy, semi-polished surface gives testament to the PCGS "cleaned" disclaimer yet decent sharpness pervades across both sides. Nevertheless, some limited grunge still manages to cling to isolated portions of the reverse.

Lot #580 - 1799 PCGS AU-53
Hammer: $4,825
Silver Dollar-Draped Bust
Robert Michaels Collection. Bolender-9, BB-166, "apostrophe reverse", the most common die-marriage for 1799. This example seemingly surpasses diagnostics for die-state V, which references basically a shattered obverse die and stars drawn to the edge. While very common, the B-9 is collectable by die-state, and such a collector might be interested to know that this is the latest die-state ever personally examined by the cataloger, most assuredly terminal and a fascinating case study as such. Add in very decent aesthetic qualities, including midnight-violet coloration throughout and a twinge of peripheral luster and one has a compelling case for the Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award.
