The 1802/1 Draped Bust Silver Dollar (BB-233, Wide Date) stands as a pinnacle of early American numismatics, struck at the Philadelphia Mint. NGC has graded 44 as XF45 with 59 finer. In CAC, there are 4 in XF45 with 7 finer.
Designed by engraver Robert Scot, this overdate variety features the 2 over 1 in the 1802/1 date, with a wide spacing between the date digits that distinguishes it from the Narrow Date. This issue embodies the nascent U.S. mint’s limitations, with a mintage of just 41,650 pieces.
This specific coin, graded NGC XF-45, showcases moderate wear that preserves sharp details like Liberty's flowing drapery and the eagle's vigilant pose on the reverse. In Extra Fine condition, it reveals bold Liberty curls and feather separations, appealing to collectors who prize circulated yet attractive survivors from the early 19th century. Certified by NGC and bearing the prestigious green CAC sticker, this example affirms its superior eye appeal and premium quality within the grade.
