Hello DB dollar experts,

I have just bought this 1798 DB large eagle dollar as part of a lot. I know nothing about early dollars, but it appears genuine.

What I always do if I happen to get an early US coin and want to help identify it is to check out the variety on PCGS and NGC, but I cannot find this particular die marriage. The closest thing to what I have found is the PCGS Photograde G06 example (which happens to be a 1798, and matches mine closely) but I cannot find that in the list of varieties either.

Any info or insights would be appreciated.

The date looks mushy. I'm going to say it's fake.

That date looks awfully "funny" compared to the rest of the coin. I think it has repaired damage or is an outright counterfeit.

Definitely not real. It's a counterfeit. Look at the size of the date. It's not correct. Just compare it to a real one on NGC. I hope you didn't pay much for it. https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explor...-eagle-1-ms/

Thanks for the replies - it is the correct weight, size, edge lettering, & it 'rings' true for a silver dollar - BUT, I haven't any experience with early dollars... having researched it on PCGS & NGC (until my eyes almost fell out & my head was about to explode), apart from the die marriage, I have to say that everything checks out... although I do see what westensky means about the date being 'funny' by comparison to the rest of the coin...

How about posting some shots of the edge lettering.

I did take a look at the dates on the major varities listed by PCGS and I didn't see anything close to this.
