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 with a vertical extension of the break within the hair. BB-52 is believed to be the second Draped Bust die marriage. Both dies differ from BB-51, but the better placement of the bust punch suggests learning from experience. A majority of BB-52 survivors are in Very Fine or lower grades. AU examples are very scarce, and desirable. This representative shows light wear on the eagle's breast and belly, but luster accompanies design elements, and the surfaces are exceptionally void of abrasions. Lightly toned wheat-gold and steel-blue with moderately deeper shades near 9 o'clock on the reverse. Certified in a green label holder.
From The Gibney Family Collection.
