1795 Draped Bust Dollar, AU58
Centered Bust, B-15, BB-52

1795 $1 Draped Bust, Centered, B-15, BB-52, R.2, AU58 PCGS. Bowers Die State IV. Sharply struck with nearly full breast feathers on the eagle and bold definition throughout Liberty's portrait, this middle die state BB 52 example shows brief wear on the eagle's forward leg. All else is sharp, while a faint translucent-gold overlay joins a speckling of russet-gray patina at the margins for excellent eye appeal. Partially reflective fields reveal only a muted, non-distracting abrasion near star 2. The BB-52 variety is scarcer than its Off-Center Draped Bust counterpart -- especially in About Uncirculated or finer grades. High-end AU examples such as this are highly prized by early dollar specialists and seldom available. Population: 12 in 58 (1 in 58+), 25 finer (11/23).
