1798 $1 Small Eagle, 15 Stars, B-2, BB-81, R.3, VF25 PCGS. Bowers Die State II. Attractive golden-gray toning deepens at the margins with a pleasing ring of gunmetal-blue at the border to give this solid VF25 example excellent eye appeal. A few light obverse adjustment marks and small marks are visible under a loupe, but they are largely muted by wear and undetectable in-hand without magnification. The BB-81 15-Stars obverse is somewhat scarcer than its 13-Stars counterpart (BB-82), the sole Small Eagle varieties for 1798. The obverse die was likely made prior to June, 1796 during the only period when 15 Stars were standard for the design. Population: 19 in 25, 62 finer (2/17).
