详细说明

Offered is a conditionally scarce AU example of this otherwise readily obtainable die pairing for the 1800-dated silver dollar issue. A handsome coin, both sides are warmly toned in pewter and dove gray with traces of olive-russet and steel-blue engaging many of the design elements. Well struck by early dollar standards, we note generally sharp definition with the only appreciable softness confined to the end of Liberty's bust, the clouds opposite on the reverse, and the eagle's left wing. Free of troublesome marks with a pleasingly smooth appearance during in-hand viewing. BB Die State V.<p>BB-187 vies with BB-193 as the most readily obtainable die marriage of the 1800 Draped Bust silver dollar. However, the BB-187 is quite challenging to locate in high grades, especially for an early dollar with such a relatively large extant population (Bowers, 2013, accounts for 700 to 1,200 coins extant in all grades). This noteworthy offering at the PCGS AU-53 level will catch the eye of advanced collectors.
