Lot 698
Draped Bust Dollar. 1797. 9 stars left, 7 right, large letters, B-1, BB-73, R-2, URS-12. ANACS graded EF-45. A curious coin as the upper obverse and lower reverse are weakly struck by the dies, enough so to have Liberty's upper hair definition weak and LIB barely visible. Bright and lustrous, there is a trace of toning on the rim. We note a minor edge flaw in the planchet above the T of LIBERTY and on the reverse as well. A coin to be inspected as it has decent surfaces and luster, but the strike leaves something to be desired.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000.
