Lot Description

1795 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar. B-4, BB-14. Rarity-3. Two Leaves. VF-25 (PCGS). OGH. This handsome specimen is attractively toned in gold, blue, jade, and lilac. The strike is very slightly off center with the result that the dentils are especially well defined at 6:00 on the obverse and 12:00 on the reverse. Close examination reveals some old toned-over scratches at BER in LIBERTY. The old style PCGS insert carries coin # 6852, which is now reserved for the Three Leaves Guide Book variety of the 1795 Flowing Hair silver dollar. PCGS# 6853.
