1803 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. BB-252, B-5. Rarity-3. Small 3. EF-45 (NGC). CAC. Warmly and originally toned surfaces are awash in a blend of olive and smoky pearl-gray patina, the obverse with underlying powder blue and antique gold iridescence evident. Central high point softness is largely a result of light wear that accounts for the Choice EF grade. Boldly defined otherwise with a pleasingly smooth appearance in hand. BB-252 is the most plentiful variety for the 1803-dated silver dollar issue, making this a popular choice for type or date collectors of the series. In either capacity, this is an excellent example with much to recommend it. PCGS# 40097. NGC ID: 24XD. From the Legacy Collection. Earlier from Heritages sale of the Long Island Collection, Part II, February 2022 Long Beach Signature Auction, lot 3618.
