Description

1799 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. BB-160, B-12. Rarity-3. AU-50 (PCGS). CAC.
A lovely example with light, gently mottled, silver-gray and pale gold iridescence to frosty AU surfaces. Sharply defined where allowed by grade, with only wispy handling marks that hardly detract. BB-160 is one of the most plentiful die marriages of the 1799-dated issue, although it is still more elusive than BB-163 and BB-166. Conditionally scarce at the CAC-approved About Uncirculated level of preservation, this desirable coin is sure to see spirited bidding among astute collectors. BB Die State II-III, intermediate die state.
PCGS# 40051. NGC ID: 24X7.
From the Legacy Collection.

Estimate: $5700
