Description
1795 Draped Bust Dollar, Unc Details
B-14, BB-51, Uncentered Bust
1795 $1 Draped Bust, Off-Center, B-14, BB-51, R.2 -- Improperly
Cleaned -- NGC Details. Unc. Bowers Die State I. The early
Mint's master dies for the Robert Scot's Draped Bust design had the
portrait punched too far left to be properly centered within the
die work. The subsequent variety (BB-52) corrected the portrait
placement in a more centered location, but not before an
unspecified quantity of the off-center dollars were struck. This is
sharply defined example of the 1795 Off-Center Draped Bust dollar
that has been cleaned. The Small Eagle reverse is remarkably sharp
including nearly full breast feathers and only minor weakness at
the forward leg plumage. A few light field abrasions and three
small marks on Liberty's cheek and neck serve as pedigree markers
for this example since it ranks highly among all BB-51 dollars in
terms of sharpness. Considerable eye appeal and technical merit
survive despite the noted cleaning.
