<Our item number 118622><B>1795 Flowing Hair Dollar 2 leaves. PCGS graded VG-10.</B> Toned on both sides, possibly cleaned long ago and allowed to retone. Once thought of as a rare variety, experts in the bust dollar series believe that somewhere between 100 and 150 exist; curiously, most of them are in relatively high grades for a 1795 issue. Liberty&#39;s flowing hair ends in six curls, with the third and fourth close together; lowest curl barely misses a point of the first star, but continues on to touch and slightly pass a second point of same star. Wide date, 79 closest. E in LIBERTY punched over an earlier erroneous R. The Y in LIBERTY is higher than the adjacent T. Foot of R in LIBERTY shortened from a broken punch. This obverse die was used to strike 1795 BB-24 &#40;early state&#41; and BB-25 &#40;early and late states&#41;. It is paired to an earlier reverse used on BB-20, two leaves under each wing. Rarity 3 <B>&#40;PCGS # 6853&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;1,500-1,600. <BR><BR>Our item number 118622<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/42jpegs/118622.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/42jpegs/118622N2.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/42jpegs/118622N3.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
