1795 S$1 Flowing Hair, Two Leaves XF45 ICG. B-2, BB-20, R.3. The obverse of this die shows Liberty's hair with six prominent curls. Star 1 pierces the lowest curl in Liberty's hair. This obverse die was used also to strike the unique 1795 B-19, BB-19 Dollar. The reverse has two leaves under the eagle's wings and was used to strike two other 1795 varieties. This variety becomes a little more difficult to locate in higher grades, and appears much less frequently than the relatively common 1795 B-1, BB-21 (with two leaves reverse). It is interesting to note that two specimens of 1795 B-2, BB-20 were part of the famous Lord St. Oswald Collection sale in 1964. Softly struck in the centers but well defined at the margins, the surfaces are nearly brilliant and there are faint portions of mint luster remaining around the devices. The most obvious flaws are from the bottom of the Y in LIBERTY to the field below star 9, a small mark next to star 4, and a faint horizontal grease stain below the eagle's left (facing) wing.From the Albany Collection.
