1799/8 Draped Bust Dollar, XF45
Attractive, Old-Silver Example
15 Stars Reverse

1799/8 $1 15 Stars Reverse XF45 PCGS. B-3, BB-141, R.3. Delightful, original toning and a bold strike make this overdate early dollar an excellent candidate for type or date collectors. Mint luster remains in Liberty's hair strands and around the field stars. This is the 15-star reverse, where 13 of the stars are fully visible but two are hidden by oversized clouds. Rich, old-silver toning is thick on the surfaces, framed by colorful gold and olive-green accents. The strike is well-centered within wide, denticled rims, and the overdate is clearly visible without a glass. A Choice XF early dollar.(Registry values: N1793)
