Lot Description

1799 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. B-15, BB-152. Rarity-3. BB Die State II. Irregular Date, 13-Star Reverse. VF-30 (PCGS). Medium steel gray with slate highlights in the protected areas and with lighter golden gray high points. A shallow old horizontal scratch behind Liberty's head is the only mark to assail the unaided eye, and the coin holds up well overall to magnified examination. Undeniably suitable for a nice type collection or early dollar cabinet.
