Lot Description

1795 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar. B-1, BB-21. Rarity-1. Two Leaves. AU-50 (NGC). OH. A gorgeous representative example of the date and grade combination. The deep golden gray and lilac surfaces exhibit strong motifs for the grade, and aside from a few light obverse planchet adjustment marks in Liberty's tresses, no marks of consequence can be seen. Flashes of neon blue and gold become active under a bold light source. Choice for the grade, undeniably so, and certain to grace an advanced type set or early dollar collection.
