1799 B-12, BB-160 Normal Date 7X6 Stars Rarity 3. PCGS graded AU-55 PQ. Subset of PCGS # 40043. In a new secure plus holder. A frosty specimen with strong underlying luster from the dies that reinforce the beauty of the light gray finish whose russet gold accents serve to draw attention to its superior quality. And superior it is, with smooth fields and devices so unlike most bust dollars of the period in which problems like marks and spotting abound. Presented for your bidding enjoyment is a coin whose munificent strike, as well as freedom from the usual clash marks typical for this issue where insufficient die pressure occurs all too often, makes this the one coin to own if you are interested in a classic late-18th century Draped Bust coin. And that is why this is a coin to jump at before it's sale is history. Pop 1; 1 finer in 58. Die notes: Obverse cracks are legendary on the BB-160 variety. A crack from the foot of 1 in date extends right, below 7, to border. Another crack extends from the border up into the first 9, while a crosswise crack at the bottom of the first 9 goes left through the upright of 7, and right to the second 9. Then there is a curved crack from the border to right which touches the drapery. A crack from the border between drapery and star 13 goes upward and curves to the right into the field. Lastly, a crack from star 12 extends to border at star 13. Curiously, all these cracks are seen on most examples known! A plentiful die state (PCGS # 40051). Estimated Value $15,000-UP.
