Early Dollars
1796 $1 Small Date, Large Letters, B-4, BB-61, R.3 -- Graffiti, Repaired -- NGC Details. Fine. Bowers Die State III. A scarce late die state example of the only 1796 Small Date, Large Letters dollar available for type and variety collectors. The B-6, BB-64 variant is an R.8 representative of the type but it is effectively uncollectible. This example of BB-61 is a stone-gray coin with graffiti etched in the fields along with some criss-cross lines. Efforts to repair and smooth the damage are of little benefit and the fields are somewhat porous as a result.
