详细说明

1857 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-2. Rarity-3. MS-62 (NGC). Lightly toned in iridescent gold and silver, this otherwise satiny beauty exhibits decided prooflike reflectivity in the fields as the surfaces dip into a light. Sharply struck in all areas save for around the obverse periphery. The 1857 is one of the more available Philadelphia Mint silver dollars from the 1853 to 1860 era, although in an absolute sense survivors are scarce to rare in all grades. Virtually all of the 94,000 circulation strikes produced were exported, those that found their way to China, in particular, being melted at their destination. Among the survivors, Mint State coins are in the distinct minority. Provenance: From The Des Moines Collection. PCGS# 6945. NGC ID: 24YW. Click here for certification details from NGC.
