Lot Description

1800 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. BB-191, B-11. Rarity-4. Bowers Die State II. AMERICAI. EF-45 (PCGS). The AMERICAI attribution is not listed on the PCGS insert and, indeed, the diagnostic die line (as made) after the final letter A in AMERICA is very faint. Richly toned in a blend of antique-copper, tannish-gray and russet shades, the toning has a somewhat mottled distribution on the reverse. Boldly defined throughout, with only light, evenly distributed wear from circulation.
