- 1857 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-2. Rarity-3. MS-62 PL (PCGS). CAC.
A particularly inviting example of this challenging Liberty Seated dollar issue, both sides are highly reflective in finish to justify the PL designation from PCGS. The fields are particularly bright, and they are fully appreciable in the absence of significant toning. Lightly struck around the obverse periphery, typical of the issue, although elsewhere we note sharp to full definition. 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 E. Horatio Morgan Collection.
PCGS Population: just 1 in all grades in the PL category.
PCGS# 86945.
