1798. Small Eagle, 13 Stars On Obverse. B-1, BB-82. Rarity 3. PCGS graded EF-45. CAC Approved. Lightly toned. A superlative specimen for the grade and of the optimum eye-appeal for this actively collected but often elusive Draped Bust, Small Eagle design. Some residual luster blends effortlessly with pale golden accents on the natural, light silver-gray surfaces. Top-notch in terms of aesthetic appeal. Both the peripheries and the central reverse are detailed and close to 100% crisp for their sharpness of strike, which is a forceful reminder in a coin from this era that it is quality that counts.
