1800 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. BB-192, B-19a. Rarity-2. AMERICAI. VF Details--Repaired (PCGS).
The obverse die of this variety was only used in this pairing, while the reverse, with its diagnostic die scratch, was used twice. All known examples from this reverse die show this strong die scratch after the final letter A in AMERICA, which has the appearance of an errant I at the end of that word, hence the AMERICAI designation. The variety itself is not particularly rare, but has long been popular with both early dollar specialists and more generalized collectors, especially given its listing in the Guide Book. BB Die State III.
PCGS# 6892.
