1799 Draped Bust Silver Dollar Philadelphia - NGC VF30

NGC population of 622 Philadelphia Mint Total mintage across all Draped Bust Dollars extremely low! The Draped Bust silver dollar, minted from 1795 to 1804, is one of the most coveted coins in American numismatics due to its remarkable rarity and historical significance. Designed by esteemed engraver Robert Scot, these coins feature the iconic Draped Bust of Liberty on the obverse and, initially, a small eagle on the reverse, which was later replaced by a more intricate heraldic eagle design. The rarity of Draped Bust silver dollars is underscored by their limited production, with some years, particularly 1804, producing incredibly few specimens. The 1804 Draped Bust dollar is famously known as the 'King of American Coins' due to its legendary status and the very few examples known to exist. Adding to their scarcity, many Draped Bust silver dollars have been lost, melted down, or heavily circulated, making well-preserved examples exceedingly rare. Collectors and investors prize
