Early Dollars
1803 $1 Small 3, B-4, BB-254, R.3, MS61 NGC. The top of the Small 3 in the date is thin, the 1 firmly touches the curl, stars 7 and 8 are distant from the L and Y of LIBERTY, stars 4 and 5 and 5 and 6 are closer together than any of the others, and stars 10 and 11 and 12 and 13 are wider apart than any others. On the reverse, the first A in AMERICA touches the third feather, and a leaf points more toward the left corner of the base of I in AMERICA.
Light- to medium-intensity, bluish-gray toning displays coppery gold undertones on this attractive MS61 dollar. A sharp strike attends design features that are nicely centered on the planchet. The reverse dentilation is strong, while that along the lower left obverse border shows slight rim crumble. Both sides are quite clear of marks, except for a noticeable scrape on Liberty's cheek and a few small marks beneath that one.
Ex: Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2008), lot 2084; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2009), lot 1582.
