1798 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. Heraldic Eagle. BB-114, B-26. Rarity-5-. Pointed 9, Close Date. VF-20 (PCGS). BB Die State V. Glossy, overactive surfaces point to an old cleaning, but both sides are retoning nicely in even golden-gray. This die pairing represents the only known use of the reverse die, which boke up early in the press run. The rarity of BB-114 has been long established among numismatic writers, some of the most recent estimates on the number of survivors including 35 to 60 pieces put forth by Q. David Bowers in 2013, and 61 to 75 examples per W. David Perkins in his "2026 Early Silver Dollar Census" published in the July 2026 edition of the John Reich Journal. Provenance: From the Mack C.
