<B>1795 S$1 Flowing Hair, Three Leaves XF45 PCGS.</B></I> B-7, BB-18, R.3. Small perfect curl touches star 1; leaf point below left serif of I in AMERICA. Die State I with strong design details and no evidence of die lapping on either side. This is a top-quality example for the variety, among the finest currently known in private collections. Recently, a game of "Old Dollar Whist" was played by three advanced early dollar collectors, including William Luebke. The players compare their coins, receiving one point for the ownership of a variety, and another point for the finest example. This example garnered two points in the match. Lilac-gray surfaces with considerable frosty luster, especially on the reverse. The obverse has splashes of golden-brown and pale blue color with peripheral steel toning on the reverse. Two short vertical scratches are evident on Liberty's temple. Both sides suggest a coin that should grade AU, being finer than the grade assigned by PCGS. Although this variety is considered common, it is clearly difficult to locate in higher grades.<BR><I>Ex: Robert Rhue (1/2004).</B></I><BR><I>From The William Luebke Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
