Lot 1789
1800 Draped Bust Dollar. Only 10 arrows. NGC graded AU-50. Rare in this grade, this variety is seldom found in high grades, and just a couple are known in about uncirculated, with none known in full mint state. Frosty mint luster on both sides, with a delicate golden tone which enhances the devices. A decent strike for this variety, which is usually found weak on Liberty's hair. A couple of very trivial rim ticks are noted for accuracy, on either side of the first A of AMERICA. Struck from a clashed reverse die, with the outline of Liberty's bust through OF, as seen on most. One other minor tick mark is noted on the left side of the eagle's breast. A rarity in this grade and well worth a premium for this scarce variety.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 5,500.
