1796 Draped Bust Dollar. Large date, small letters. NGC graded EF-40. Popular draped bust, small eagle design. Lightly toned on both sides.

Everything else is exceedingly choice, exceptionally smooth! This die variety has a diagnostic lump or die break at the I of AMERICA. Pop 6; 14 finer (PCGS # 6861) .
