1795 Draped Bust Dollar, AU50
Centered Bust, B-15, BB-52
Smooth Surfaces, Green Label Holder
1795 $1 Draped Bust, Centered, B-15, BB-52, R.2, AU50 PCGS.
Bowers Die State IV. The two first-year Draped Bust dollar
varieties, BB-51 and BB-52, do not share dies, but specialists
believe BB-51 was struck first. That is because the bust punch for
BB-51 was entered off center, and the diesinker presumably learned
from the experience before properly centering the bust punch on
BB-52. The first-year Draped Bust dollar is typically encountered
in VF or lower grades. AU examples, such as the present lot, are
very scarce and desirable. This representative shows light wear on
the eagle's breast and belly, but luster accompanies the design
elements, and the surfaces are virtually devoid of abrasions.
Lightly toned wheat-gold and steel-blue with moderately deeper
shades near 9 o'clock on the reverse. Housed in a green label
