Early Dollars
1799 $1 7x6 Stars, B-22, BB-168, R.4, VF35 PCGS. Bowers Die State IV. A heavy horizontal die break bisects the reverse, and explains the scarcity of B-22. As of (3/17), PCGS has certified 18 pieces as B-22, with the single finest as AU50. This demonstrates the conditional rarity of the die marriage. The present gunmetal-gray and olive-brown example is nicely defined and free from any distracting abrasions.
