Amazing Vinyage Collector Busty Classic Iconic proof Silver Dollar!!!

1804 Draped Bust Silver Dollar. Class I Original. BB-304. Proof-65 (PCGS). OGH. 415.3 grains. There are rarer coins, but in the federal series there are none that challenge the fame, tradition, and glory given to the 1804 silver dollar. In 1941 B. Max Mehl called it "The King of American Coins," and it still commands that numismatic throne. Over a long period of years it has been our pleasure to have handled most of the 15 1804 dollars in existence. Eight Class I dollars are known, one Class II (in the National Numismatic Collection in the Smithsonian Institution), and six of the Class III. Each of our past offerings has created a sensation. The ownership of an 1804 dollar places the buyer in a Pantheon of numismatic fame. This is the second time we've had the honor and distinct pleasure to present the Stickney 1804 dollar in one of our catalogs. It first appeared in our (Bowers and Merena's) April 1997 sale of the famed Eliasberg Collection, its first appearance in the numismatic marketplace in 51 years! Now this great treasure is offered as part of the magnificent Larry H. Miller cabinet, and it will surely find its way into another world class collection.
