- 1859 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-3. Rarity-3+. MS-61 (PCGS). Both sides are brilliant apart from splashes of faint silver-olive iridescence around the obverse periphery and scattered about on the reverse. The finish is universally prooflike with pronounced reflectivity in the fields yielding to light frosting over the design elements. Sharply struck with superior eye appeal at the BU grade level. The 1859 is a scarce No Motto Liberty Seated dollar in an absolute sense, despite a generous mintage of 255,700 circulation strikes. Export claimed much of the mintage and was the reason these coins were produced in the first place. Mint State examples are rare, and represent the few survivors that escaped commercial use. An important bidding opportunity for advanced Liberty Seated dollar enthusiasts. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS# 6946. NGC ID: 24YX.
