Early Dollars
1797 $1 10x6 Stars, Large Letters, B-3, BB-71, R.2, VF35 PCGS. Bowers Die State III. The 10x6 star arrangement is perhaps slightly scarcer than the 9x7 stars Large Letters variety (BB-73), but the unusual star configuration is a favorite of early dollar and type collectors. This is a Choice midgrade example with lavender and pale-blue shades at the borders and lilac-gray centers. Ideal for a circulated set, the original surfaces are pleasing with sharp definition remaining on the devices. A surprising amount of mint luster remains in protected areas. The reverse shows faint adjustment marks at the margins, visible with a glass but much less so in-hand.
