1251<br />
1251 1798 1 Dollar. Fine Details, Cleaned. B-14, R.4.<br />
Toned with underlying glossiness as a result of an old<br />
cleaning. Few marks are noted, but several planchet<br />
striations (as-made) remain running through Liberty’s<br />
portrait. (photo) Est. 700-900<br />
1253<br />
1253 1799 1 Dollar. ANACS XF40. B-23. R.4. A sharply<br />
detailed specimen of this easily identifiable die marriage,<br />
with eight stars to Liberty’s left and five to her<br />
right (usually 7X6). The surfaces are now toned<br />
throughout, with deep olive-gray on the obverse and<br />
lighter tan-gray on the reverse. Oil-slick blushes are<br />
evident on both sides. While some contact chatter is<br />
visible on the obverse, no individual marks are bothersome.<br />

1252<br />
1252 1798 1 Dollar. Fine Details, Scratched. B-23, R.3.<br />
Numerous shades of gray traverse both the obverse<br />
and reverse with several ancient diagonal scratches in<br />
the reverse fields that now mostly blend into the wear.<br />

1254<br />
1254 1799/8 1 Dollar. XF Details, Environmental<br />
Damage. B-1, R.3. Rich brown and olive patina blanket<br />
the surfaces with no significant marks and sharp<br />
design detail on Liberty’s hair and the reverse eagle’s<br />
breast. While the overall appeal remains attractive,<br />
some of the obverse peripheral tone is “too dark” and<br />
would likely result in a failure to make it into a problem-free<br />
holder. (photo) Est. 1,800-2,200<br />
