Lot Description

Bold AU 1795 Draped Bust Dollar 1795 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. B-52, B-15. Rarity-2. Centered Bust. AU-53 (NGC). This is a pleasant 1795 Draped Bust dollar with olive-copper highlights on a base of warmer silver gray patina. The strike is generally well centered, a bit less so on the obverse, but both sides are framed in fully denticulated borders. The devices are boldly to sharply detailed and uphold the validity of the AU grade from NGC. It is smooth and attractive and will be just right for a high grade collection. Bowers-Borckardt 52 is the Centered Bust variety of the first year Draped Bust silver dollar, survivors of which are always in demand among collectors seeking an example of the brief and challenging Small Eagle design type. This is one of the finer examples available in today's market, and it is sure to see spirited bidding at auction. BB Die State IV. PCGS# 6858. NGC ID: 24X2.
