<B>1800 $1 AMERICAI AU58 PCGS.</B></I> B-19, BB-192, R.2. The famous AMERICAI variety with a slanted die defect following the legend, known with two different obverse dies. There is yet to be a suitable explanation of the die defect, although it appears to be some type of stray mark, rather than a recutting as some have suggested. It is certainly not a stray letter "I" as its name suggests.<BR> Dave Bowers writes: "It takes some imagination to call it an I, but the nomenclature has been with us for a long time, and 'AMERICAI' it is. Nowhere else in the silver dollar series has a stray die mark done so much for a coin's value and desirability in the eyes of collectors."<BR> This example is an amazing piece with nearly full luster, attractive speckled gold color, and splashes of darker russet and steel toning.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Robert Scot<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
