Lot 1773
1798 Draped Bust Dollar. Heraldic eagle reverse, large eagle, 10 arrows. ANACS graded AU-50. Frosty luster in the fields and toned with antique gold colors. We note staining on the upper left through the stars to LI of LIBERTY, and one hidden mark is located outside the fourth star. Faint hairlines from past cleaning and circulation are also present, but nothing else worth noting. Sharply impressed by the dies, and a slightly better variety, with just 44 auction appearances noted in the extensive Bowers Borckardt survey. A good coin for the variety collector.
Estimated Value $2,700 - 3,500.
