Lot 1487
1795 Draped Bust Dollar. Centered bust. . BB-52. Sharpness of EF-45. Cleaned and artificially retoned. An old cleaning has left visible hairlines and a lightly polished look to the surfaces. Retoning has put a charcoal and subtly iridescent color to the surfaces which makes the evidence of cleaning much less apparent. Well struck with sharp detail. A couple of old scratches on Liberty's portrait and several tiny rim nicks are the only marks to mention. No adjustment marks on either obverse or reverse. A very nice example that will bring a healthy premium over the normally encountered cleaned specimen.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 3,750.
