Lot 1556
1799 Draped Bust Dollar. . Bolender-21, Rarity-3. NTC graded EF-45. Our grade VF-30. A sharp example cleaned some time ago and artificially retoned. We must say, the retoning job is a good one and matches the normal rich magenta, steel blue and golden hues that often come naturally on these issues. Hairlines are not heavy and the rims are in excellent condition. A short, diagonal scratch left of the date is the only random mark. A variety identified the easiest by observing the position of the 8th star closest to Y coupled with raised die lumps below the AM of AMERICA and below the first star on the obverse.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 1,750.
