Early Dollars
1795 $1 Draped Bust, Centered, B-15, BB-52, R.2, AU53 PCGS. Bowers Die State V. The new Draped Bust design, influenced by portrait painter Gilbert Stuart, appeared first on the 1795 silver dollars. On all other silver denominations, as well as the cent, this design made its debut in 1796. Two obverse dies were utilized for the entire coinage of 1795 Draped Bust dollars, differing in the position of the central device, either centered or left of center and crowding the first few stars.
This example has pleasing gray-gold color with hints of iridescence. It is fairly well struck, with excellent details on each side. A faint toning streak in Liberty's hair strands runs across the internal die break that indicates a mid-to-late die state. Adjustment marks extend up from the lower reverse border, confined mainly to the margin and devices below the eagle's legs. Much definition remains on the eagle's breast feathers. Housed in an old blue label holder with the barcode on the back.
Ex: ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2007), lot 1713.
