详细说明

1799 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. BB-166, B-9. Rarity-2. Bowers Die State II. AU-55 (PCGS). Secure Holder. This smooth-looking AU is exceptionally well preserved for an early Dollar that saw actual, however limited commercial use. Both sides are free of outwardly noticeable abrasions, the surfaces veiled in rich, mostly even, copper-gray patina. The only significant variation to the toning comes in the protected areas around the devices, where we see lighter olive-gold highlights. Sharp-to-full in strike, this expertly produced and carefully preserved coin ranks among the finest AU-quality 1799 Dollars that this cataloger has handled in recent memory.
