- 1853 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-1, Top 30 Variety. Rarity-2. Chin Whiskers. AU-55 (PCGS). A sharply defined, predominantly lustrous example whose otherwise brilliant surfaces reveal a splash of reddish-gold toning along the lower obverse border. Most of the 46,110 circulation strike silver dollars produced in 1853 were shipped overseas, primarily to Liverpool, England or China. Many examples of this issue must have been shipped to England, from which they eventually returned to the United States in payment for goods such as cotton, or were retained in domestic bullion reserves and somehow managed to avoid melting in later years, for the 1853 has an above average rate of survival for a Philadelphia Mint silver dollar from the 1850s. It is, for example, more readily obtainable than such other issues as the 1854, 1855 and 1856. The 1853 is still scarce in an absolute sense, however, and especially in the finer circulated and all Mint State grades. PCGS# 6941. NGC ID: 24YS. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
