1795 B-15, BB-52 Draped Bust Rarity 2. PCGS graded MS-61. Subset of PCGS # 6858. In a new secure plus holder. Toned yet deeply lustrous, quite well struck save for some details on the eagleís leg, and very attractive overall. A gorgeous Draped Bust, Small Eagle 1795 that will be of great interest to the die variety specialist as well as the type set collector. Few comparable examples exist of the Centered Head variety in Mint condition. On the reverse several cracks and die characteristics are especially noted, including a crack from the left border above D (UNITED) touching the lower left serif of the first S (STATES), continuing into the leaves. At the right near the border, past F (OF) are some raised islands. 1795 introduced the new Draped Bust design, believed to be the work of portraitist Gilbert Stuart, who prepared sketches that were translated to plaster models by John Eckstein, an artist at the Mint. Records show that Eckstein was paid $30 for "two models for dollars" on September 9, 1795. This may refer to the coin of this new design. The date these coins were first struck is unknown, and the last date of their coinage is also unknown, perhaps continuing into 1796. Pop 1; none finer at PCGS for the variety (PCGS # 39995) . Estimated Value $50,000-UP. The Dr. Hesselgesser Collection. Categories: The Dr. Hesselgesser Collection of Bust Dollars
