Lot Description

1795 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar. B-5, BB-27. Rarity-1. BB Die State II. Three Leaves. Genuine--Code 98, Surfaces Tooled (PCGS). This is the plentiful B-5 die marriage of the 1795 Flowing Hair silver dollar, although extensive tooling in the fields has effaced the diagnostic die line on the obverse behind Liberty's portrait. Dominant silver gray patina to both sides, the surfaces also revealing mottled blue-gray and rose-russet iridescence that is a bit more extensive on the obverse. Heavy, yet even wear. <strong>Good Details</strong>.
