Popular 1795 Flowing Hair Dollar
Three Leaves, B-5, BB-27, AU50

1795 $1 Flowing Hair, Three Leaves AU50 PCGS. B-5, BB-27, R.1. Die State II. The so-called Head of 1795, Three Leaves variety, with star 1 well away from the lowest hair curl. The extra tine of metal behind Liberty's head diagnoses this most available Flowing Hair variety, of which probably several thousand exist in all grades combined. In this earliest known die state, a small reverse die crack is just beginning from the end of the left stem toward the rim; in Die State III the crack meets the rim.
This piece has a pleasing wealth of detail remaining for the grade, and the deep steel-gray patina mostly conceals a dark area in the right obverse field, apparent struck-in die grease that does not affect either the technical grade or the aesthetic appeal.(Registry values: N4719)
