Description

1795 B-11, BB-12 Silver Dollar, XF Details
Important Early Dollar Rarity
High Condition Census

1795 $1 Flowing Hair, Two Leaves, B-11, BB-12, R.7 -- Cleaned -- NGC Details. XF. Bowers Die State I, as always, from perfect dies. Although the rarity rating is sometimes quoted as R.6, it is our opinion that R.7 is accurate with not more than 10 examples known to us. Steve Herrman's auction records for early dollars record just five appearances of this variety since 1988, and he lists six examples in his census that range from XF45 down to VF25. The present pleasing golden-brown example shows evidence of light cleaning. The obverse border denticles appear disfigured as they were struck through adjustment marks. The reverse border is indistinct opposite the obverse adjustment. This piece is one of the two or three best from a small overall population.
