1795 $1 Flowing Hair, Two Leaves, B-2, BB-20, R.3, VF35 PCGS. Bowers Die State II. Struck from lapped dies, with the left-hand stars small and spindly compared to the right-hand ones. A short "bar" inside of star 4 is sharply visible on this example. The BB-20 seldom survives in grades finer than XF, making this Choice VF coin an optimal selection for a midgrade collection. The golden-gray surfaces are smooth and problem-free with a hint of luster. A glass reveals a small abrasion near the eye, but no significant marks exist for the assigned grade.
