Early Dollars
1795 $1 Draped Bust, Off-Center, B-14, BB-51, R.2, VF20 PCGS. Bowers Die State I. Variety BB-51 is nearly always found in a perfect die state. Although Bowers has suggested many 1795 Draped Bust dollars were saved as first-year souvenirs of the new obverse design, this VF example clearly saw circulation. The curls show good definition and partial detail remains on the wing feathers, but significant blending occurs over virtually all relief areas. Tan-gold and steel-gray color the centers, while olive and russet tones appear within the peripheral recesses.
