Lot 1821
1799 Draped Bust Dollar. Sharpness of EF-40. Lightly cleaned. Typical indistinct centers, but generally acceptable for this early piece. Many bust dollars of 1795-1803 were mishandled or cleaned or even repaired along the way. The advent of third-party grading in the 1980s, however, stabilized the confusion by drawing attention to any major problems. Again, this piece has only been lightly cleaned, not abrasively so.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 1,800.
