FS: Nicely toned CAC Bust Dollar - 1802/1 Overdate
Hi! I recently acquired a new bust dollar for my typeset and need to sell my old one Please see pics below...
The price includes domestic shipping, and payment may be made via Paypal or check (in which case I will ship once funds clear).
I have completed a number of successful transactions and can provide references if needed.
Also for sale on eBay (https://ebay.to/2ElrwmO), but much less here.
Questions and comments are welcome!
1802/1 $1 PCGS XF40 CAC - SOLD
Ex CRO, where it was described as "A crusty, all original early dollar with colorful old toning on the obverse and reverse."
The photos are my own and I feel give a fairly accurate representation of the coin in hand. There is remaining luster in the protected areas of the obverse, more so on the reverse, and the colors come alive as you rotate the coin in the light. The PCGS TrueView does a nice job of depicting these. Also, as seen in the TrueView but somewhat obscured by the holder gasket, please note the two rim bumps on the obverse at 5 and 7 o'clock. Notwithstanding, the eye appeal of this coin is incredible!
From a fairly scarce mintage of only 41,650. Though not attributed on the holder, I believe this is the BB-232 Close Date variety.
PCGS Coin Facts shows no record of any CAC verified XF40 examples of this overdate selling at auction. If you include both the narrow and wide date varieties, CAC has approved 43 TOTAL in all grades and only 3 in XF40.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

Your new 1803 is really nice.
I like the 1802/1 better ... except for those two tiny rim bumps. I just would not be able to get past those intrusions..
I really like your images of the coin. The TV is not flattering.
You have a good eye.

Thank you! I really try to get my photos as close to “in hand” as I can. Of course, there’s often a lot more going on with a toned coin as you rotate/tilt it in the light, which I can’t capture. In this particular case, I think the TV captures the colors better, but makes the coin look lighter than it appears in hand. It also accentuates a darker area on the lower left obverse that is hardly noticeable in hand.
As for the bumps, well, they are there. I imagine those will be hard/impossible for some to get past. They are however, on the periphery of what is otherwise, in my opinion, a delightful looking coin - and one with an appearance that is not easy to find in a difficult series to begin with.
Hopefully it will find a good home...or just stay in mine
