1798 $1 Large Eagle, Pointed 9, Close Date, B-27, BB-113, R.2 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. Bowers Die State II. The obverse die held together to strike seven 1798 varieties (BB-113 through BB-119), but BB-113 is the only usage paired with a reverse die where field star 12 is distant from the beak, and the olive leaf tip points between R and I in AMERICA. This stone-gray example was cleaned at one time and lacks its original patina. A few faint swirl lines exist in the smooth, slightly subdued fields, yet About Uncirculated definition remains.
