Lot 1387
1802/1 Draped Bust Dollar. Narrow date. Sharpness of EF-40 but holed and repaired. The repair is located at BE of LIBERTY, and the reverse shows evidence of work around the eagle's tail, but it is nicely done and not readily apparent. It appears that the surfaces have been bathed in an abrasive, as they have a pickled look, which is too bad as this coin shows very little actual wear. Retoned with golden wisps around the periphery, lighter at the centers. Mint-caused adjustment marks in the star field above the eagle. Worth inspecting, as this coin offers a lot for what will probably be a nominal price.
