Description
1797 Dollar, Choice XF
9x7 Stars, Small Letters, B-2, BB-72
1797 $1 9x7 Stars, Small Letters, B-2, BB-72, R.4, XF45 PCGS.
CAC. A 9x7 Stars obverse paired with a Small Letters reverse
that is diagnostic. Q. David Bowers writes of the variety in his
Silver Dollars and Trade Dollars of the United States: "Of
all 1797 varieties, the BB-72 is at once the rarest, best known,
and most sought after. ... Indeed, it may well be the most famous
variety after 1794 and before 1804."This Choice XF survivor is well-preserved and attractive relative to most of its peers. Glimmers of luster appear at the margins, and dappled olive-gray, deep violet, and steel shadings cover the rest of the coin. Minimally marked and attractive, an entirely pleasing coin for the grade.
